Monoterpeno 4-terpineol ─ uma molécula com atividade anticonvulsivante: estudos...
Nobrega, Franklin Ferreira de FariasTerpinen-4-ol (4TRP) is a monoterpe alcohol and component of the essential oils of several aromatic plants. Similarly to 4TRP, other monoterpenoid alcohols have showed anticonvulsant activity in convulsion animal models. The present report aimed to investigate the psychopharmacological effects of terpinen-4-ol, specifically the anticonvulsant activity. Mice (Mus musculus) swiss male and and rats (Rattus norvegi...
