Preparation

By steam distillation of the branches and leaves of P. mugo Turra var. pumilio (Guenther, 1952).

Essential oil composition

Main constituents include l-α-pinene, β-pinene, l-limonene, dipentene, l-phellandrene, aldehydes, various esters, and alcohols.

Composition

The main components include α-terpineol (30.2%), linalool (24.47%), limonene (17.01%), anethole (14.57%), caryophyllene (3.14%), and eugenol (2.14%).

Health effects

Pine needle essential oil is the essential oil extracted from pine needles. This oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids and is an important ingredient for "melting" cholesterol and removing impurities in blood vessels. It can effectively remove excess cholesterol in blood vessels and play a great role in reducing blood viscosity. At the same time, it can also improve the elasticity of blood vessels, make blood flow smooth, it can regulate blood pressure, and has antihypertensive effect on hypertensive patients. Pine needle essential oil is also a secret factor for two-way regulation of blood pressure. Pine needle oil has inhibitory effect on the proliferation of gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells, and the inhibitory effect is significantly enhanced with the increase of pine needle oil concentration.

Pharmacology

In man. Pinus pumilio oil increased bronchial secretions (Thomas, 1958). A dose of 500 mg/kg was reported to have no effect in vivo on the metabolism and pharmacological activity of pentobarbitone (25 mg/kg) in rats or in vitro on the metabolism of amidopyrene, p-nitroanisole and aniline by rat liver (Jori et al. 1969). Intravenous injection of the oil dissolved in sorbitol monostearate water caused no toxic effects in warm-blooded animals and large doses caused no changes in blood pressure, but it showed digitalis-like action of the isolated toad heart (Primavori. 1960).

Safety Profile

Mildly toxic by ingestion. A human skin irritant. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.

Metabolism

Following immersion of young pigs and one human subject for 30 min in baths containing 150 ml of a pine-oil mixture (Fichtennadel-Latschenkiefer?l. Kneipp) in 450 litres of water, a- and ?-pinene and limonene (components of Latschenkiefer?l) were detected in the exhaled air within 20 min, reaching maximum levels 50-75 min after the start of the bath and remaining detectable after 1 day (R?mmelt, Zuber. Dirnagl. & Drexel. 1974).
