“…This result was in accordance with those obtained from a pure sample of artemisia alcohol which exhibited an moderate activity against S. aureus. 32 In the case of C. jejuni, the fraction FH1, with a diameter of 22.6 mm, was slightly active but, as reported in the literature, 17 C. jejuni is a very sensitive species and a such diameter is common. Chamazulene, in FH2, also showed weak activity (10.0 mm).…”
The chemical composition of Otanthus maritimus L. essential oils obtained from aerial parts, roots and whole plants from Corsica was investigated by capillary GC and GC-MS analysis. A collective oil and some of its main components were tested for antibacterial activity against microorganisms involved in nosocomial infection and food-borne illnesses. With the exception of camphor (7.0-20.4%), the main constituents were irregular monoterpenes: yomogi alcohol (24.4-34.7%), artemisia alcohol (11.5-19.2%) and artemisyl acetate (4.9-12.6%). The antibacterial activity of O. maritimus oil and the antibacterial potential of both artemisia and yomogi alcohols against Staphylococcus aureus and Campylobacter jejuni are reported for the first time.

“…Further, there are also many reports on the bioactivities, including antimicrobial activity, of extracts and essential oils from species of the genus Artemisia (7). For instance, Artemisia douglassiana is used for its antifungal and antibacterial activities (8). This species has also been used as a topical bactericidal agent for skin burns (9).…”

The objectives of this reserch were to determine the antibacterial activity of hexane-petroleum ether (1 : 1 v/v) flavonoid, alkaloid, essential oils, saponin, sterol, tritepene, hydrolized tannin, and coumarin.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
