Acquisition of Piper aduncum View in CoL and extraction of its essential oil
Leaves and thin stems of P. aduncum were obtained from Embrapa Amazônia Occidental, Km 23, state highway AM-010, in the municipality of Manaus, state of Amazonas, Brazil. A total of 20 kg of P. aduncum (dried in an oven at 40 °C) was used for steam distillation in a semiindustrial oil distiller (SIEMA, Litiara), which resulted in the extraction of 230 mL of essential oil (EO). From 10 mL (1.082 g /mL) of this EO, a dillapiole-rich fraction (85% w/v) was isolated using a silica gel 60 chromatographic column (20 cm high; 1.5 cm in diameter) and eluted with hex: AcOEt (9:1).
