Abstrak. Aromaterapi adalah suatu bentuk terapi atau pengobatan menggunakan bahan tanaman volatil, yang bertujuan untuk mengatur fungsi kognitif, mood, dan kesehatan. Tanaman volatil dikenal juga minyak atsiri. Minyak atsiri biasa diperoleh dari tanaman dengan berbagai cara yang berbeda-beda seperti ekstraksi, penyulingan dan distilasi fraksinasi.  Salah satu minyak atsiri adalah minyak nilam. Kandungan minyak nilam yang utama yaitu patchouli alcohol (40-50%) digunakan sebagai bahan baku, bahan pencampur dan fixative (pengikat wangi-wangian) dalam industri parfum, kosmetik, dan obat-obatan. Pengembangan minyak atsiri sebagai aromaterapi perlu dilakukan sebagai upaya peningkatan pemanfaatan dari produk minyak atsiri. Komponen aroma dari minyak atsiri cepat berinteraksi saat dihirup. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengukur aktifitas lokomotor pada mencit untuk melihat efek yang ditimbulkan setelah di inhalasi dengan minyak nilam. Hasil menunjukkan adanya penurunan aktifitas setelah diinhalasi dengan minyak nilam. Ini menunjukkan minyak nilam memberikan efek depresi sistem syaraf pusat terhadap mencit. Persentase penurunan aktifitas gerak terbesar pada dosis 0,5 ml.Development of Patchouli Oil as Aromatherapy and Its Potential as Medicinal ProductsAbstract. Aromatherapy is a form of therapy or treatment using material from a volatile plant, intended to regulate cognitive, mood, and health function. Volati is also known for essential oil. Essential oil is often obtained from plants in various ways such as extraction, distillation and distillation of fractures. One essential oil is patchouli oil. The primary patchouli oil content is alcohol (40-50%), which is used as a ingredient, mixative and fixative in the perfume, cosmetics, and drugs industry. Commercial loans grew by 14 percent to RPM from the same period last year. Essential oil scent components must interact quickly when inhaled. The study was done to measure the locomotive activities of er er er to see the effect that was caused after inhalation with patouli oil. Results indicate a decrease in activity following inhalation with sapphire oil. This suggests patchouli oil, giving a depressed effect of the central nervous system on chiming. It's the largest drop in activity at a 0.5 ml dose.

Tualang honey has been shown to protect against neurodegeneration, leading to improved memory/learning as well as mood. In addition, studies have also demonstrated its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. However, a substantial part of this research lacks systematization, and there seems to be a tendency to start anew with every study. This review presents a decade of research on Tualang honey with a particular interest in the underlying mechanisms related to its effects on the central nervous system. A total of 28 original articles published between 2011 and 2020 addressing the central nervous system (CNS) effects of Tualang honey were analysed. We identified five main categories, namely nootropic, antinociceptive, stress-relieving, antidepressant, and anxiolytic effects of Tualang honey, and proposed the underlying mechanisms. The findings from this review may potentially be beneficial towards developing new therapeutic roles for Tualang honey and help in determining how best to benefit from this brain supplement.

Abstract-There is growing evidence of measurable effects of essential oils in animal brains and so more clinical research is required to validate their influence on the human central nervous system. This will enable us to discover essential oil-based drugs for treatment of mental illnesses such as depression, anxiety etc. Several methods have been developed to obtain oil from oil-rich plant materials using aqueous enzymatic methods. By using enzymes to mediate the extraction, it is possible to maintain mild conditions and effect superior extraction. The enzymes such as cellulase, hemicellulase, pectinase and protease are the most favourable enzymes for degrading the cell wall in oilseeds to loosen oil sacs embedded in the seed structures. Reduced equipment costs and energy consumption are also potentially possible, since oil and protein may be recovered simultaneously Therefore, the present study is proposed on quality and quantity enhancement of essential oils from citrus peel waste through enzymatic intervention and evaluates their effect on the central nervous system in Rodent Models. As an attempt to obtain the essential oil through hydro distillation HD and hydro distillation enzyme assisted HDEA was carried out. Several experiments have been conducted to determine the optimal process parameters for both methods, i.e., substrate to solvent ratio, extraction temperature, extraction time, enzyme loading, and incubation time etc. to Obtain essential oil from citrus peel collected from the local market of Dehradun. Total yield and physical characteristics like specific Gravity, viscosity, refractive index, acid, Saponification, iodine no etc. were compared. Both samples of oil CA-1 and CA-2 were further screened for their effect on Central Nervous System on the rodent model. Result indicated HDEAnot only improved yield but also has sustainably stimulant effect on the central nervous system as compared to HD. Keywords: Essential oil, Enzymes, Central nervons system.
