Effect of monoterpenes on lipid oxidation in maize
2004
Zunino, María Paula | Zygadlo, Julio Alberto
The monoterpenes 1,8-cineole, thymol, geraniol, menthol and camphor strongly inhibited the root growth of Zea mays L. seedlings. They induced an oxidative stress as measured by the production of malondialdehyde, conjugated dienes and peroxides. This oxidative stress depended on the length of the exposure and on the monoterpene applied. The total fatty acid content was measured and fatty acid composition was analyzed. Unsaturated fatty acids increased in the treated samples. The alcoholic and non-alcoholic monoterpenes appeared to have different modes of action.
