The antiviral activity of the EO of the Lamiaceae Melissa officinalis L. against HSV-2 was examined by Allahverdiyev et al. (2004). The effect of the essential oil on HSV-2 replication in Hep-2 cells was tested in five different concentrations (25, 50,100,150, and 200 pg/mL). Up to a concentration of 100 pg/mL Melissa officinalis oil did not cause any toxic effect to Hep-2 cells, but it was slightly toxic at concentrations over 100 pg/mL. At nontoxic concentrations the replication of HSV-2 was reduced. Recently, Schnitzler et al. (2008) confirmed these findings The lipophilic nature of the EO of lemon balm helps to affect the virus before adsorption thus exerting a direct antiviral effect. After the penetration of the herpes virus into the host ceU there was no affection recorded anymore. [Pg.245]

Table 96.1 presents the ratio of R-(+)-citronellal to S-(—)-citronellal in essential oils of various origin. The nearly exclusive occurrence of the (+)-form is a characteristic of lemon balm Melissa officinalis) oils and can be used as criterion to detect adulterations [24]. [Pg.2978]

Both natural and synthetic citral are composed of an isomeric mixture of geranial ( -3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienal) and neral (Z-3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienal). In the isomeric mixtures, geranial is usually the predominant isomer. It occurs naturally in essential oils of citrus fruits (i.e., up to 5% in lemon oil) and in a variety of herbs and plants such as Melissa officinalis, lemongrass (70-80%), and eucalyptus (Wichtel, 2002). Because of its intense lemon aroma and flavor, citral has been used extensively in the food, cosmetic, and detergent industries since the early 1900s (Boyer and Petersen, 1991). Studies in rats have shown that citral is rapidly metabolized to several acids and a biliary glucuronide and excreted, with urine (48-63%) as the major route of elimination of citral, followed by expired air (8-17%), and feces (7-16%). As demonstrated in Figure 8.8, seven urinary metabolites were isolated and identified 3-hydroxy-3,7-dimethyl-6-octenedioic acid. [Pg.216]

Citronellal, a further aldehyde, is a main constituent in citronella oils (Cymbopogon nardus) and can also be found in Melissa officinalis and in various Eucalyptus species as E. citriodora. It is mainly used in perfumery [27]. [Pg.2979]

The essential oil from Santolina insularis was also inhibited virus replication against HSV-1 and HSV-2 in vitro (Schnitzler et al. 2008). Its antiviral activity was principally due to direct virucidal effects (De Logu et al. 2000). Lemon balm oil, the essential oil of Melissa officinalis, is capable of exerting a direct antiviral effect on HSV-1 and HSV-2. Considering the lipophilic nature of essential oils, which enable it to penetrate the skin, and a high selectivity index, essential oils might be suitable for topical treatment of herpetic infections (Schnitzler et al. 2008). [Pg.116]
