Plant essential oils are valuable natural products used as raw materials in many fields, including
perfumes,cosmetics,aromatherapy,phototherapy,spices and nutrition. Furthermore,the essential oils are
used in traditional medicine for their various activities,such as antimicrobial,antioxidant,antifungal,
antitumoral,spasmolytic,carminative,hepatoprotective and antiviral activities[1]. Synsepalum dulcificum
(Sapotaceae) ,an evergreen shrub indigenous to West Africa,produces red berries containing a glycoprotein,
miraculin,which has the unusual ability to modify a sour taste into a amazingly excellent sweet taste[2-3].
Subsequently,S. dulcificum was extensively used as an adjuvant for diabetic patients with insulin resistance or
for individuals who need sweeteners instead of sugar[4]. In the course of screening for pharmacological activity
from tropical medicinal plants,S. dulcificum plant was chosen for further phytochemical investigation. The
published results elaborated that S. dulcificum leaf had obvious curative effect on enhancing liver function,
heartburn,indigestion,poor appetite and other symptoms,such as atherosclerosis,high blood pressure and
diabetes[5]. Biochemical constitutes obtained from S. dulcificum stem had antioxidant properties and inhibitory
effects on human melanoma proliferation,and reduced mushroom tyrosinase activity[6]. The protein extracted
from S. dulcificum seed could lower blood glucose and promote the secretion of insulin of diabetic mice[7].
Recently,S. dulcificum has received special attention as source of natural medicine and dietary food in some
countries[8-9]. The quest for new antimicrobial and chemopreventive drugs based on traditional herbs is of great
interest. However,so far the presence of chemical compounds and bioactivities in S. dulcificum essential oil
has not been demonstrated. Therefore,the aim of the present study was designed to determine the chemical
compounds of leaf essential oil of S. dulcificum as well as to evaluate the antibacterial activity of this essential
oil towards eight microbial strains. Furthermore,we investigate its cytotoxicity activity on a series of human
cancer cell lines, SPC-A-1 (Lung) ,BEL-7402 (Hepatocellular) ,SGC-7901 (Gastric) ,K562
(Myelogenous Leukaemia) ,by means of the MTT (3-(4,5)-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium
bromide)assay. We attempt to find its use of this essential oil for pharmaceutical treatment and natural
therapies.
1 Materials and Methods
1. 1 Plant material
The leaf of S. dulcificum was collected during October 2011 in Baoting county,Hainan Province,China.
A voucher specimen was deposited in the Key Laboratory of Tropical Medicinal Plant Chemistry of Ministry of
Education,Hainan Normal University,China.
1. 2 Microbial strains
The in vitro antibacterial activity of the essential oil was evaluated against panel,which included
laboratory control strains:six Gram-positive bacteria (Bacillus subtilis,Bacillus cereus,Staphylococcus albus,
Staphylococcus aureus,Micrococcus tetragenus & Micrococcus luteus) and two Gram-negative bacteria
(Escherichia coli & Pseudomonas aeruginosa). The microbial strains were obtained from School of Life
Science,Hainan Normal University. Cultures of each bacterial strain were maintained on Luria-Broth (LB)
medium at 37℃ .
1. 3 Cells
Cell lines (SPC-A-1,BEL-7402,SGC-7901 & K562)were originally obtained from Shanghai Institutes
for Biological Sciences,Chinese Academy of Sciences and maintained in Roswell Park Memorial Institute-1640
(RPMI-1640,Gibco BRL,USA)medium,supplemented with 10% neonatal bovine serum (NBS) ,0. 2%
NaHCO3,100 IU /mL penicillin,100 mg /L streptomycin and 2 mmol /L L-glutamine at a humidified
第 1 期 卢圣楼,等:神秘果叶挥发油化学成分分析及抗菌、抗肿瘤活性 123
atmosphere containing 5% CO2 at 37 ℃ .
1. 4 Essential oil extraction
Fresh leaf was chopped and submitted to hydrodistillation for 6 h using a Clevenger-type apparatus. The
oil was recovered with diethyl ether and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate for 24 h. The solvent was
removed using the rotary evaporator under vacuum. Obtained essential oil was preserved in the sealed brown
glass vials at 4℃ under refrigeration till further analysis.
1. 5 GC-MS analysis
The analysis of volatile compounds was performed using the GC-MS 6890-5975 system (Agilent
Technologies,Palo Alto,CA,USA)equipped with a HP-5MS fused silica capillary column (30 m ×0. 25 mm
i. d.,with 0. 25 μm membrane thickness,Agilent Technologies). The equipments were conditioned and
programmed according to the required parameters. For GC-MS detection,the electron ionization (EI)system
with ionization energy of 70 eV,the carrier gas was helium at a constant flow rate of 1 mL /min. The front inlet
in split-less mode and the mass transfer line temperature were set at 250 ℃ and 280 ℃,respectively. Diluted
essential oil (1 ∶ 50 in ether,v /v)of 1 μL was injected manually and analyzed with the column held initially
at 80 ℃ for 1 min and then programmed to 150℃ with a 5℃ /min heating ramp,subsequently held at 280 ℃
for 40 min. The major constituents of the essential oil were identified by comparing their mass spectra with the
NIST08 mass spectral database library,and confirmed by comparison with data published in the literature
whenever possible. Relative percentage of each compound in essential oil was expressed as percentage by
integrating the peak area of the spectrograms.
1. 6 Antibacterial activity assay
The paper disc diffusion method was employed to determine the growth inhibition caused by leaf essential
oil from S. dulcificum against the above strains[10]. Briefly,the tested bacterial suspensions were adjusted to
107 CFU /mL and spread in LB medium (10 - 15 mL per 90 mm Petri dishes)using a sterile cotton swab.
Subsequently,filter paper discs ( 6 mm;Whatman #1)were placed on the surface of Petri dishes and
impregnated with 20 μL of the essential oil dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO)at 10 g /L. The Petri
dishes were inverted and incubated at 37℃ for 24 h. The zone of growth inhibition diameter against the tested
bacterial was measured to evaluate antimicrobial activity of essential oil. Negative control was set up with
equivalent quantities of DMSO. Antibiotic ampicillin (10. 0 mg /L)was used as positive test controls. All
determinations were performed in triplicate.
The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC)of the essential oil against the test strains was evaluated by
micro-dilution method with slight modification[11]. The MIC was determined only with micro-organisms that
displayed inhibitory zones. Dilutions were prepared in a 96-well microtitre plates to get final concentration
ranging from 0. 01 to 0. 30 g /L of essential oil in the medium. Finally,100 μL of inoculums were inoculated
on to the microplates. Plates were incubated at 37 ℃ for 24 h. The lowest concentration of tested essential oil,
which did not show any visual growth after macroscopic evaluation,was determined as MIC. A negative control
was also included in the test using a filter paper disc saturated with DMSO to check possible activity of this
solvent against the bacteria assayed. All determinations were performed in triplicate.
1. 7 Antitumoral activity assay
The cytotoxic effects of the essential oil on four human tumor cell lines were assayed by the MTT
assay[12-13]. Essential oil was solubilized in DMSO then diluted with phosphate buffered saline (PBS)for
further use. The cells seeded at a density of 104 ind per well were cultivated for 24 h before the test essential
oil was added. The essential oil (20 μL per well)of different dilutions (100,10 and 1 mg /L)was applied to
124 林 产 化 学 与 工 业 第 34 卷
the wells of a 96-well plate containing confluent cell monolayers (six wells per concentration). The cells were
cultivated for a further 72 h. The dilution medium without the sample was served as control. The IC50 values
were calculated by linear regression of plots where the abscissa and the ordinate represented the concentration
of tested oil,and the average percent of antitumoral activity from three separate tests,respectively.
1. 8 Statistical analysis
The tests were conducted in triplicate and data from experiments were analyzed by SPSS 14. 0 and
calculated as mean ± SD.
2 Results and Discussion
2. 1 Chemical composition of the essential oil
The essential oil obtained by steam distillation of the fresh leaf of S. dulcificum afforded an average yield
of 0. 1% on wet weight basis. Freshly isolated essential oil was a straw yellow liquid with intensive and
narcotic odour. The chemical components of the essential oil of S. dulcificum were analyzed by GC /MS. Sixty-
eight compositions were separated. Among them,44 components were identified and represented 92. 14% of
the total detected constituents. Their component name,retention time,molecular formula and percentages
were summarized in Table 1. The complex mixture components of essential oil were separated into six classes.
They were oxygenated sesquiterpenes,monoterpene hydrocarbons,aliphatic esters,oxygenated monoterpenes,
hydrocarbons and others. Spathulenol (24. 194 %),limonene (15. 805 %),diisooctyl phthalate (12. 402 %),
dibutyl phthalate (10. 326 %) ,palmitic acid (4. 865 %) and linalool (2. 139 %)were the major
constituents. They comprised 69. 731% of the essential oil.
The high percentage of spathulenol has been reported to have antiasthmatic and expectorant actions[14].
Limonene has been found to exhibit against mammary tumors in rats and metastasis of human gastric cancer[15]
and antifungal properties[16]. Linalool is one of the most useful monoterpene alcohols for the perfumery
industry as well as for synthesis route to vitamin E[17], Furthermore, this compound has exhibited
antinociceptive[18],anticonvulsant[19] and sedative activities[20]. Diisooctyl phthalate and dibutyl phthalate in
this essential oil are abundant. It may be related with environmental conditions,such as geographical
variations,climatic,soil composition and seasonal conditions.

2. 2 Antibacterial assay
The in vitro antibacterial potential of S. dulcificum essential oil against the employed bacteria was
quantitatively assessed by MIC values. Results on antibacterial activities involving the evaluation of inhibition
zones and MIC values are shown in Table 2. As it can be seen from Table 2,the result of the bioassay
exhibited that the essential oil displayed varying degrees of antibacterial activity against all tested bacterial
except P. aeruginosa. Additionally,the diameter of inhibition zone for the essential oil fell in the range of
3. 4 mm to 17. 5 mm. B. subtilis was the highest susceptibility with inhibition zone of (17. 50 ± 0. 8)mm,
and M. luteus appeared to be less susceptible with inhibition zone of (3. 43 ± 0. 6)mm. The minimum
inhibition concentration (MIC)value of this oil ranges between 39. 06 to 252. 15 mg /L. Among them,a
minimum of the essential oil was observed as the MIC (39. 06 mg /L)against B. subtilis,while the largest
MIC value of 252. 15 mg /L against M. luteus,respectively. Based on this finding,it can be concluded that
the Gram-positive bacterium is more susceptible to the antimicrobial properties of essential oils than Gram-
negative bacteria. It is considered to be due to its double layer cell membrane[21].
The activity of the essential oil varies with its concentration and kind of bacteria. These differences in the
susceptibility of the test organisms to essential oil could be attributed to a variation in the rate of the essential
oil constituents penetration through the cell wall and cell membrane structures. The ability of essential oil to
disrupt the permeability barrier of cell membrane structures and the accompanying loss of chemiosmotic control
are the most likely reasons for its lethal action[22]. In addition,the components in lower amount may also
contribute to antibacterial activity of the essential oil,involving probably some type of synergism with other
active compounds. Related research on the essential oil of S. dulcificum is therefore important.

2. 3 Antitumoral assay
To investigate the tumoricidal activity of S. dulcificum essential oil,four human cancer cell lines,i. e.,
SPC-A-1,BEL-7402,SGC-7901 and K562,were exposed to increasing concentrations of essential oils. Cell
viability was determined by the MTT assay. Table 3 presented the summarized inhibition rate (%)and half
inhibition concentration (IC50). As shown in Table 3,it was found that the essential oil revealed different
cytotoxic activities towards the four human cancer cell lines investigated. In general,higher the concentration
of essential oil tested,the lower the cell viability percentages were. For the essential oil dilutions ranging from
1 mg /L to 100 mg /L,the essential oil induced a dose dependent inhibitory effect on K562,with IC50 values of
13. 5 mg /L. In comparison,at the higher dilution of 100 mg /L,the effect of the essential oil on the other
three cell lines was less sensitive.

SGC-7901 — 14. 36 27. 68 > 200
The capacity to kill cancer cell lines was attributed to specific components of the oil. Previous
investigations have explained that monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes derivatives such as linalool,terpineol,
geraniol and selinene are reported to possess antibacterial,insect-repelling and toxic activities[23]. Since the
essential oil used in our study contained geraniol,α-terpineol and linalool(Table 1) ,we hypothesize that
these two constituents may be responsible for the observed antitumoral activity.
3 Conclusion
3. 1 The leaf essential oil of S. dulcificum was obtained by hydrodistillation. The chemical component of this
oil was investigated by GC-MS. Sixty-eight compositions were separated. Among them,44 components were
identified and represented 92. 14% of the total detected constituents. Spathulenol (24. 194%) ,limonene
(15. 805%) ,diisooctyl phthalate (12. 402%) ,dibutyl phthalate (10. 326%) ,palmitic acid (4. 865%)
and linalool (2. 139%)were the major constituents,and comprised 69. 731% of the essential oil.
3. 2 The essential oil displayed varying degrees of antibacterial activity against all tested bacterial except for
Pseudomonas aeruginosa,along with MIC values from 39. 06 to 252. 15 mg /L. The antitumoral activity using
MTT assay of the leaf essential oil indicated this oil was effective against human cancer cell line K562 in a
dose dependent manner,and its IC50 value was 13. 5 mg /L. A further study under in vitro condition is
recommended to elaborate the antibacterial and antitumoral activities of the major compounds of S. dulcificum
