森林芬多精类成分及其生物活性的研究进展

Research progress on constituents and biological activities of phytoncides from forest

芬多精是森林植物的器官和组织在自然状态下释放的气态有机物,主要是芳香性萜烯类物质,包括单萜烯、倍半萜烯、双萜烯等,其中以单萜烯和倍半萜烯的生物活性较强。芬多精不仅能保护植物免受细菌、真菌和寄生虫等的侵害,对人类健康亦有广泛的积极作用,是目前森林康养研究的核心因素。综述了不同树种、纯林芬多精类型、化学成分、含量及生物活性,总结了有毒有害植物与花卉的毒性成分,为深入开展植物芬多精基础研究,合理利用芬多精构建森林康养基地提供了理论参考。

Phytoncides are volatile chemicals released by the organs and tissues of forest plants in their natural state,including monoterpenes,sesquiterpenes,diterpenes,etc.,among which monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes have stronger physiological effects.Phytoncides not only protects plants from forest pest and pathogens,such as bacteria,fungi,virus and parasites,but also has a wide range of positive effects on human health,so it has been regarded as one of the key factors of forest therapy.Types,chemical compositions,contents and biological activities of phytoncides from different tree species/pure forests were reviewed,and the toxic ingredients from the poisonous and harmful plants were summarized in this paper,and in order to provide a theoretical reference for in-depth basic research of phytoncides,and design and build of forest therapy base by rational use of plant phytoncide.
