Phytochemical and Bioactivities of Myrtus communis : A Review
View through CrossRef
Myrtus communis L. plant is from Myrtaceae family and it is known as True Myrtle. M. communis extracts and essential oil are important in drug development with some pharmacological activities in the Middle East. For a long time M. communis has been used in traditional medicines for the treatment of lung disorders and as an antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, mucolytic, carminative and astringent remedy. It has recently antioxidant, analgesic, antibacterial and antifungal activities and larvicide, insecticide and repellency effects. Myrtucommulone A & B and semi-myrtucommulone are oligomeric, nonprenylatedacyl-phloroglucinols which are reported from leaves of myrtle. α-pinene, 1,8-cineol, limonene and linalool were identified as the major constituents in M. communis essential oil.
