Abstract

The objective was to extract and identify the chemical constituents of the essential oil of black pepper (Piper nigrum L.), study its antimicrobial potential and biomonitored the oil through the cytotoxic potential test. The plant material showed a yield of 1.15% of essential oil, where 38 compounds were identified by chromatography, the major constituents being: sabinene (30.62%), limonene (21.43%), karyophylene (21%), ß - pinene (9.62%) and a -pinene (5.31%). Listeria monocytogenes and Clostridium perfringens presented lower MIC, with 30.92 ^g/mL. [...]black pepper essential oil is a promising antimicrobial, being a possibility of future application, as a natural preservative in the food industry. Natural products, bioactive compounds, gas chromatography, microorganisms, toxicity 1 INTRODUÇAO A crescente busca por alimentos saudáveis induzem as industrias a comercializarem produtos com teores reduzidos de gordura, aditivos e conservantes químicos, priorizando a qualidade do produto final.
