Chemical Composition and Antimicrobial Activity of the Essential Oil of Chrysanthemum indicum Against Oral Bacteria

Abstract: The chemical components of the essential oil obtained from Chrysanthemum indicum L. were analyzed by GC-MS. Seventy-three compounds accounting for 96.65% of the extracted essential oil were identified. The main compounds in the oil were α-pinene (4.4%), 1,8-cineole (10.4%), α-thujone (6.05%), camphor (10.12%), terpinen-4-ol (3.4%), bornyl acetate (6.1%), borneol (3.6%), cis-chrysanthenol (3.4%), β-caryophyllene (5.1%), germacrene D (10.6%), and α-cadinol (3.0%). The essential oil of C. indicum exhibited strong… Show more

“…It has been traditionally used for the treatment of cancer, pneumonia, colitis, stomatitis, sore, and fever. This plant is known to possess antibacterial, antioxidant, and oxidative DNA damage preventive activity (Jung 2009;Debnath et al 2013). In the present study, silver nanoparticles are synthesized using a floral extract of C. indicum and tested for its larvicidal and pupicidal properties on A. stephensi.…”
