Plant material, collected in July 2014 near the peak Babin Zub, was used to
prepare essential oil (EO) and post-distillation waste (PDW). GC-MS determined α-
pinen as dominant EO constituent, while LC-MS/MS pointed at rutin and quinic acid
as the most abundant in PDW. Strong antioxidativity of PDW was determined in
DPPH (IC50 5.27µg/mL) assay. Cytotoxicity against carcinoma cells of lung (A549)
and colon (HT-29 and HCT116), and normal fibroblasts (MRC-5), pointed at
remarkably higher effectivity of EO (IC50 range 69-160µg/mL). Binary mixtures of
EO/PDW with doxorubicin induced clear synergism, being more pronounced in
cancer A549 cells than in normal fibroblasts. Microdilution assay performed on
selected fungal and bacterial strains showed that PDW induced moderate
antimicrobial effect against fungi (MICs and MFCs ranging between 118-900µg/mL)
and Listeria monocytogenes (MIC/MBC were 390/740 µg/mL). Combinations of
EO/PDW with selected antibiotics induced synergistic antili...sterial activity in
checkerboard assay. High selectivity of PDW against fungi and L. monocytogenes was
determined in respect to all used cells. In in vitro adhesion-inhibition assay PDW
reduced adhesion of L. monocytogenes to colon cells (29-62% inhibition). Obtained
results indicated that J. communis EO could be recommended for further anticancer
study, while PDW should be considered as potential antimicrobial.
