Exploration of Chemical Composition and Unveiling the Phytopharmaceutical Potentials of Essential Oil from Fossilized Resin of Pinus succinefera

Background: Most of the plant natural flora contributes significantly to medicinal benefits. To address shortcoming usage synthetic drugs, products are in demand which offer a broad spectrum activities with negligible side effects. Pinus succinefera is fossilized resin from coniferous woods that belongs genus Pinaceae family and widely known as Amber. The present study explores physiochemical properties biological essential oil.
 Method: oil obtained using hydro-distillation process, chemical composition was examined by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometric analysis well functional groups were determined Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry. Thermal characterisation performed Thermo Gravimetric Analysis Differential Scanning Calorimetry. antimicrobial potential evaluated against different microorganisms meanwhile antimalarial activity Plasmodium falciparum examined. free radical scavenging capability assessed 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate (DPPH) reagent. High-performance thin-layer chromatography used examine qualitative components Results: profile indicated 5 major compounds oil, consisted 99% total oil. thermal established stability. showed moderate antioxidant significant observed microbial species including falciparum. In five bands Retention factor ranging 0.2 0.7 at 254nm represented.
 Conclusion: results has be pharmaceutical industry manufacture substances, it can show other domains.
