Category:Healthy Food Materials

Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) is a dicotyledonous plant of the family Labiatae. It is a perennial evergreen sub-shrub up to 2 meters high, native to Europe and the Mediterranean coast of northern Africa [1], and has been introduced to the Central Plains from the Western regions during the reign of Emperor Wei of the Three Kingdoms, and was first recorded in the Wei Liao [2]. Rosemary is particularly drought-resistant, and is also known as the “dew of the sea”in Kannada because of its small blue flowers that bloom every summer and look like drops of water from a distance [3].

 

Rosemary has a strong aroma and is traditionally used as a spice and food additive to enhance the flavor of meats and seafood in Kannada. The aroma of rosemary has been used in traditional medicine as a tranquilizer, antispasmodic, and astringent because of its ability to lift the mood, combat depression, and relieve tension[4] . Modern research has also demonstrated that rosemary has antimicrobial properties[5] and can reduce the adhesion of pathogenic microorganisms to cells[6]. In addition, rosemary has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, which are mainly related to the phenolic acids in its chemical composition. These effects are mainly related to the phenolic acids in its chemical composition, such as rosemarinic acid, which can reduce the expression of pro-inflammatory factors [7, 8], and rhamnoside, which can act as an antioxidant to neutralize free radicals and reduce the occurrence of oxidative reactions [9, 10]. Rosemary is safe and efficient, and it has been shown that a single oral dose of 2000 mg-kg-1 of supercritical fluid extract of rosemary was well tolerated by rats[11] . Therefore, rosemary has the potential to be used as a natural green preservative and antioxidant, replacing chemical synthetic products [12].

 

 

Rosemary

In recent years, rosemary has been found to have a complex composition by techniques such as high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) method. Studies on the composition of aqueous extracts, alcoholic extracts and essential oils of rosemary have shown that it mainly contains flavonoids, terpenes, phenylpropanoids and organic acids. The chemical composition of rosemary is the basis of its function, and it is of great significance to clarify the chemical composition of rosemary for the research and development of rosemary products. Although the classification and summarization of the chemical structure of rosemary has been reported, it is not comprehensive enough. Therefore, this paper summarizes the research reports on the chemical composition and application of rosemary in the past 5 years, in order to provide reference information and scientific basis for the development of health products containing rosemary and its active ingredients.

 

This paper summarizes the research reports on the chemical composition and application of rosemary in the past five years.

 

1 Chemical composition

1.1 Flavonoids

The study of flavonoids in rosemary started earlier, and more than 30 compounds have been isolated, including flavonoids, flavonols, dihydroflavonoids, dihydroflavonols and so on, which have a wide range of biological activities such as anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and so on [13].The chemical composition of flavonoids in rosemary is shown in Table 1 and Figure 1.


1.2 Terpenoids

Terpenoids are the most important chemical constituents in rosemary, containing monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes, diterpenes, triterpenes and other complex terpenes. It has been found that the terpenes in rosemary from different regions vary in type and content [31]. The essential oil of rosemary is rich in monoterpenes, such as camphor, eucalyptol and α-pinene, which have strong inhibitory effects on Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and help to reduce foodborne pathogens and prolong the shelf life of food, which are the key components of the antibacterial activity of rosemary [32]. The diterpene phenolic constituents in rosemary mainly include dieffenol, rhamnolic acid, rhamnol, etc. These constituents, with high content and good thermal stability, are the key substances for the antioxidant activity of rosemary [17, 33, 34]. In addition, terpenes with conjugated double bonds in rosemary also have very high antioxidant potency, such as carvone, laurin and γ-pinene, which can scavenge DPPH free radicals very rapidly [35].

 

The chemical composition information of terpenoids in rosemary is shown in Table 2 and Figure 2.

1.3 Phenylpropanoids

The phenylpropanoids contained in rosemary are mainly phenylpropionic acid and its derivatives. The content of caffeic acid in rosemary is high, and some studies have shown that the content of caffeic acid in its extract can reach 500 mg-kg-1 [25]. Caffeic acid has antioxidant, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, immunoregulatory and neuroprotective effects [50]. Rosmarinic acid, the main component of rosemary, is a polyphenolic hydroxyl acid, which was first isolated and extracted from the rosemary plant in 1958, and the content of rosmarinic acid in rosemary leaves can reach 7572.67 mg kg-1 [51], and rosmarinic acid has been proved to have a wide range of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic and anticancer biological properties [52-54].

The chemical composition information of phenylpropanoids in rosemary is shown in Table 3 and Figure 3.

 

1.4 Other chemical constituents

Some other organic acids and a few steroids and aliphatic hydrocarbons were also detected in rosemary, which are summarized in Table 4 and Fig. 4.

 

In addition, amino acids and minerals were also detected in rosemary. Rosemary is rich in Ca, Na, and S, and the toxic elements Cd and Pb are at trace levels, which are in accordance with food standards [31]. The amino acids in rosemary include alanine, phenylalanine, isoleucine and proline[21] , and studies have shown that these amino acids with hydrophobic residues have antioxidant potential, and they can protect myoglobin from oxidation by peroxyl radicals[56] .

 

In summary, existing studies have shown that the chemical constituents in rosemary mainly include terpenes, flavonoids, phenylpropanoids, and other classes of chemical constituents, and that different origins, extraction sites, or extraction methods affect the types and proportions of their chemical constituents. Terpenoids are the most complex and abundant constituents of rosemary, among which monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes are mainly found in the essential oil of rosemary. The constituents contained in the essential oils of rosemary from different regions vary, but most of them include α-pinene, β-pinene, camphene, 1,8-eudesmane, camphor, verbenone, and so on[57] . Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) is commonly used to quantify these components, and a study comparing the contents of essential oils of rosemary from different origins found that eucalyptol was the most abundant, with a relative content of 34.6%, followed by vervainone, with a relative content of 33.18%[58] .

 

Rosemary essential oil

However, in another experiment, it was analyzed that the highest content of rosemary essential oil from other origins was α-pinene, with a relative content of up to 39.05%[59] , which shows that the origin of rosemary has a great influence on the content of its constituents. The diterpenoids contained in rosemary are more stable, mainly rosinane-type diterpene phenolic acid compounds, and rosinane-type compounds have been proved to have antibacterial and anthelmintic effects, and they are the defense components in the plant body, among which the contents of salvinorinol and salvianolic acid, as the common active components of rosemary, can reach 1689.84 µg-g-1 and 812.38 µg-g-1 [60], which make rosemary have excellent properties. components give rosemary an excellent antioxidant capacity. The triterpenoids in rosemary are mostly triterpenoids, mainly ursolic acid, oleanolic acid and betulinic acid. For the second major chemical constituent of flavonoids in rosemary, existing studies have focused more on the optimization of the extraction process, and relatively few reports have been published on the isolation and identification of flavonoids in rosemary, with a total flavonoid content of about 24% in rosemary extracts [61]. The total flavonoid content of rosemary extract is about 24% [61]. Rosemary also contains a few phenylpropanoids, mainly phenylpropionic acid and its derivatives, of which rosmarinic acid is the most abundant constituent in rosemary.

 

2 Application progress

2.1 Antioxidants

The inhibition of food rancidity has always been one of the important problems in the food industry, among which the oxidative rancidity of free radicals formed by the oxidation of fats and oils is particularly harmful to food safety. Rosemary extract has good in vitro antioxidant activity, and its phenolic acid components such as rhamnosus acid and rosmarinic acid can effectively inhibit lipid peroxidation in Kannada. Researchers have utilized the antioxidant properties of rosemary as a food additive to inhibit oxidative rancidity of food products: for example, rosemary extract can effectively inhibit the oxidation of fats and proteins during the processing of meat products, and it is a kind of highly efficient free radical scavenger and natural antioxidant [62]: edible oils are prone to oxidative deterioration, and the addition of rosemary extract can significantly prolong the shelf-life of edible oils, and slow down the degradation of endogenous α-tocopherol in rapeseed oils. The addition of rosemary extract can significantly extend the shelf-life of edible oils, which provides a new way to establish healthy, nutritious and safe preservation measures for fats and oils[63, 64] . In addition, the addition of rosemary extract to activated films can also play an antioxidant role [65], and this material can be applied to the packaging of high-fat foods to extend the shelf life of foods.

 

2.2 Antimicrobial agents

In vitro studies on the biological activity of rosemary against Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) bacteria showed that rosemary exhibited antibacterial and anti-biofilm activity against the growth of both types of bacteria [66], which supports the fact that rosemary is an excellent antimicrobial agent. Sodium nitrite and nitrates are commonly used as preservatives in meat products such as sausages, however, these ingredients have potential carcinogenic and mutagenic risks, so it is important to find natural alternatives. Rosemary has been shown to be effective in inhibiting bacterial growth in frankfurter sausages [67], improving the safety of sausage preservation, and the addition of rosemary to sauce packets and cheeses has been shown to retard microbial-induced food spoilage [68]. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations has approved rosemary extract as a food additive, providing support for rosemary extract as a green alternative to synthetic preservatives. In addition, the antibacterial effect of rosemary can also be applied to crop production, and studies have shown that methanolic extracts of rosemary can control bacterial soft rot during potato growth[5] , thereby increasing crop yields.

 

2.3 Flavoring agent

With the improvement of people's living standards, the demand for food flavor is getting higher and higher, and rosemary is rich in terpenes, the rich aroma makes it very suitable as a flavoring agent, it can give food a unique flavor and texture. For example, rosemary is a common ingredient in western cuisine and is often used in steak cooking, where the addition of a small amount of rosemary can reduce the fishy flavor of the meat without destroying the original flavor of the food. It has been shown that the addition of rosemary extract to different food products, such as bread, olive oil, salted duck eggs, etc. [24, 69, 70], can enhance the organoleptic properties of the food as well as provide antioxidant and preservative effects. Apparently, rosemary has the potential to be used as a natural flavoring agent instead of synthetic flavors.

 

2.4 Pharmacological activities

Although rosemary has not been formally used in clinical practice, many studies have confirmed its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antitumor, and bacterial flora regulating effects, and its protective effects on various organs.

 

Inflammation is the body's self-defense reaction when it encounters injury, which is the main cause of chronic diseases. Suppressing inflammation can effectively slow down the process of sexually transmitted diseases. Rosemary is rich in flavonoids, which have been widely shown to have anti-inflammatory activity. It has been shown that rosemary essential oil can effectively ameliorate dinitrochlorobenzene-induced atopic dermatitis, reduce the production of arachidonic acid metabolites, inhibit skin inflammation, and restore the function of the epidermal barrier by regulating the JAK/STAT/NF-κB signaling pathway [71]. UV radiation promotes the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines from the stratum corneum to trigger inflammation, and rosemary extracts and the active ingredient sage have been shown to be effective in inhibiting the expression of inflammatory factors, such as interleukins and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and thus counteracting UV-induced photodamage.

 

Rosemary contains a large number of phenolic acids, which are good antioxidants. Aging is caused by the production of large amounts of reactive oxygen species during cellular metabolism, and the components of rosemary, such as rhamnoside, rosmarinic acid and ursolic acid, act as hydrogen donors in the reaction with free radicals, thus reducing oxidative damage and playing an important role in slowing down the aging process, and it has been shown that rosemary can be used to slow down the aging damage of the prefrontal cortex and to prevent the aging complications in the brain [71]. The two key compounds in rosemary that exert antioxidant effects are rosmarinic acid and rhamnolic acid, with rosmarinic acid dominating in extracts dominated by polar compounds and rhamnolic acid dominating in extracts dominated by nonpolar compounds, and the levels of these two components correlating with scores on the antioxidant capacity of oxygen radicals and the reducing capacity of iron ions [72].

 

Rosemary essential oil

The key to treating cancer is to inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells, and rosemary is a potential natural anticancer agent. It was found that rosemary extract could significantly reduce the cell viability of human epithelial cancer cells, and the rich polyphenolic components in rosemary could inhibit the drug resistance of cancer cells, promote the uptake of drugs by cancer cells, and reduce drug efflux[73] . Rosemary extract also significantly reduced the phosphorylation levels of Akt and mTOR, which induced apoptosis and reduced migration of PC-3 prostate cancer cells.

 

In addition to the above mentioned effects, rosemary is also known to have reproductive protective effects. Rosemary has been shown to protect the adrenal glands and testes of male rabbits exposed to cypermethrin [74]. In addition, it was found that rosemary may mitigate the effects of consuming a high-fat diet by altering the composition of the microbiota[75] . The development of rosemary as a functional food is promising because of the benefits of appropriate intake of rosemary leaves in daily life.

 

3 Conclusion

Rosemary, as a famous spice plant of the Labiatae family, has been consumed around the world for thousands of years. As a natural antioxidant and traditional preservative in Kannada, rosemary has been developed and utilized in food and chemical industries. With the deepening of the research on natural products, rosemary is also gradually emerging in the field of medicine. Rosemary has a wide range of biological activities, including antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antidepressant, antitumor, etc. through different pathways and targets [57, 76-79], and there are a large number of reports on antioxidant and antibacterial effects. However, the current mechanistic studies are limited to the classical inflammatory and tumor pathways, and future studies may focus on exploring new targets and pathways in which rosemary can play a role. As a dual-use plant, rosemary has a broad development prospect in many fields such as food, agriculture, cosmetics and medicine.

 

Although the research on rosemary has revealed that it has a large number of chemical components and a wide range of biological activities, there is still a lack of authoritative and effective evaluation system for the quality control of rosemary, which greatly restricts the full utilization of rosemary resources and the value of rosemary. In the future, the fingerprints of rosemary can be correlated with pharmacodynamics, and the mechanism of the active components of rosemary can be further investigated through the spectral-effect relationship and bioinformatics technology, which will provide a broader space for the research and development of rosemary products.
