Abstract

Volatile profiles using GC/MS with hydrodistillation extraction and antioxidant effects against DPPH and ABTS radicals of purple perilla (Perilla fructescens) leaf extracts from plants grown in greenhouse were investigated. Volatiles were characterized as 25 components of 7 types including 2 alcohols, 3 furans, 3 esters, 2 aldehydes, 4 ketones, 10 hydrocarbons, and an acid. The dominant component was perillaketone (>54%) in total average content. Isoegomaketone was the second major compound (21%), followed by α-bergamotene (8.7%) and β-caryophyllene (5.7%). Contents of these 4 major components differed between cultivars, especially perillaketone and isoegomaketone (39.0-74.1 and Not Detected-36.9%, respectively). Antioxidant properties of methanol extracts containing 1% trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) showed differences with highest effects at 50 μg/mL. The main volatiles of perilla were affected by genetics and cultivars more than by environmental conditions. Antioxidant activities are probably correlated with phenolic and anthocyanin contents.
