The essential oils from the dried stems of Ephedra sinica, E. intermedia and E. equisetina were analyzed by GC-MS qualitatively and GC quantitatively. One hundred and twenty-seven constituents were identified, l-alpha-terpineol (31.64%) in E. sinica, 1,4-cineole (12.80%) in E. intermedia

Recent studies have shown that some monoterpenes exert anxiolytic- and depressant-like actions, however, these effects from monoterpene 1,4-cineole are still unknown. This work aimed to study the effects of 1,4-cineole in classic animal models for depression- and anxiety-like behavior, specifically

1. The metabolism of 1,4-cineole, a monoterpene ether, was studied in the rabbit. 2. Four neutral and one acidic metabolites were isolated from the urine and shown to be 9-hydroxy-1,4-cineole, 3,8-dihydroxy-1,4-cineole, 8,9-dihydroxy-1,4-cineole, 1,4-cineole-8-en-9-ol and 1,4-cineole-9-carboxylic acid.

A cytochrome P-450-dependent monooxygenase system that catalyzes the stereospecific hydroxylation of the monoterpene substrate 1,4-cineole was demonstrated in cell-free preparations of Bacillus cereus UI-1477. 1,4-Cineole hydroxylations were catalyzed by a 100,000 x g (1-h)-centrifuging soluble, hexane-inducible enzyme that activated and
