摘要

Highlights ► Antioxidant potential and antiproliferative effect of five monoterpenes was investigated. ► α-Terpineol presented good antioxidant activity in ORAC test. ► Limonene and α-terpineol presented equivalent antiproliferative profile in vitro. ► α-Terpineol had encouraging results against breast carcinoma and chronic myeloid leukemia. ► In vivo assays must be performed to confirm the anti-tumor potential of α-terpineol.
