Chemical composition and antibacterial activity of the essential oil from Diphasia klaineana fruits and its fractions obtained by fractional distillation
Abstract:This study aimed to analyse the chemical composition of essential oils from Diphasia klaineana fruits, its fractions and evaluate their antibacterial activity. The GC-MS analysis and agar disc diffusion and microbroth dilution methods were carried out. A total of 43 constituents were identified in the essential oil from fruits of Diphasia klaineana (FR) and the major compounds were β-elemol (30.23%), sabinene (9.28%), guaiol (5.12%), (E)-β-ocimene (5.11%) and δ-elemene (3.53%). The FR1 and FR3 fractions collec… Show more
