Abstract

toreliana is a distinct aromatic plant with several medicinal applications to cure many ailments. Chemistry and medicinal potentials of the seed essential oil of Eucalyptus toreliana F. Muell grown in Nigeria were examined in this study. The phytochemical composition of the seed essential oil was evaluated using multidimensional GCxGC-MS, MS and FT-IR. The seed oil was also investigated for its total phenolic content, antioxidant and acute toxicity, anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive potentials. Analyses of the seed essential oil extract resulted in the identification of 70 compounds representing 98.53 % of the oil. α-Pinene (16.0%), Copaene (10.0%), 1R-α-Pinene (8.0%), DL-Pinene (8.0%), β-trans-Ocimene (5.0%), α-Bisabolol oxide B (5.0%), Oleamide (5.0%) and Globulol (4.0%) were detected as the major components accounted for 65% of the oil. The total phenolics content of the seed oil of E. toreliana was estimated as 191.68±0.0006 μgmg -1 GAE. The results of DPPH and FRAP antioxidant showed that the oil possessed strong free radical scavenging and reducing potentials with IC 50 9.0 µgml -1 each in both methods. No sign of toxicity was noticed in the rats which indicate that the seed oil was relatively nontoxic and safe.
