Abstract (english)
Lippia citriodora Kunth. (Fam. Verbenaceae) is a small shrub with lemonscented lanceolate leaves and spikes of white flowers, native to Argentina, Chile and Uruguay and cultivated in this country. The plant is cultivated in France, Spain, Algeria, Tunisia, and other countries with hot mediterranean climate. The dried leaf (French Pharmacopoeia, 10th edition) is widely used to prepare infusions. The drug consists of unifoliolate leaves with a narrow, lanceolate, acute, and undulate hlade. Upon brusing, the drug gives off a pleasant odor, reminiscent of that of lemon. The powdered drug can be identified by microscopic examination, which shows short and thick hair with cystoliths and a large number of anomocytic stomata. The drug assay includes quantitation of the essential oil (> 0.4% v/w) and TLC analysis (to show the presence of citral). The drug also contains flavonoids, chiefly 6-hydroxylated flavons and their methyl ethers. The leaves are used as a source of Verbena oil, and also for treating stomach deseases. Lemon verbena is traditionally used (infusions) to treat the symptoms of various digestive ailments, and of neurotonic disorders.
