description | Medicinal plants have great potential for the production of phytocompounds, which are used for various purposes, mainly in drugs and cosmetics. The aim of this study was to evaluate the essential oil from Lippia alba cultivated with ammonium (NH4+) and nitrate (NO3-) under light environments. The plants were subjected to five ratios of NH4+: NO3- with nutritious solutions and four light environments (red, aluminet and black mesh, and full sun). The experiment design was entirely randomized with a 5 × 4 interaction and five repetitions per treatment, totaling 100 experiment units. The seedlings were transplanted to 6 dm3 plastic pots containing a mixture of washed sand + vermiculite at a ratio of 2:1. At 120 days after application of the treatments, the following parameters were evaluated: yield, content and composition of essential oil. The extraction was performed with the hydrodistillation method using drag of steam for a period of 2 hours. Nine compounds were found in the essential oil, of which neral and geranial represented 90% of the blend. Carvone was only found in the treatment with plants grown under the red mesh and with the 50:50 ratio of ammonium and nitrate. |

Las plantas medicinales tienen un gran potencial en la producción de fitocompuestos, estos son derivados para fines diversos, principalmente en la industria de medicamentos y cosméticos. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar el aceite esencial de Lippia alba, cultivada con proporciones de amonio (NH4+) y nitrato (NO3-) en entornos de luz. Las plantas fueron sometidas a cinco proporciones de NH4+: NO3-, adicionados por soluciones nutritivas, y cuatro ambientes de luz (mallas roja, aluminet y negra, y solar completo). El diseño experimental fue completamente al azar con la interacción 5 × 4, con 5 repeticiones por tratamiento, para un total de 100 unidades experimentales. Las plántulas fueron transplantadas a macetas de plástico 6 dm³ de capacidad, conteniendo una mezcla de arena lavada + vermiculita en relación 2:1. Después de 120 días de la aplicación de los tratamientos, los parámetros evaluados fueron rendimiento, contenido de humedad y la composición del aceite esencial. La extracción se realizó a través de hidrodestilacion por arrastre de vapor, para un período de 2 horas. Se encontraron nueve compuestos en los aceites esenciales, el geranial y neral representaron el 90% de la mezcla, la carvona sólo se encontró en el tratamiento con plantas cultivadas bajo malla roja y con la relación de 50:50 de amonio y nitrato.
