Chemical Composition and Antimicrobial Activity of Echinophora spinosa L. (Apiaceae) Essential Oil
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present study was undertaken to investigate the chemical composition and effectiveness of the essential oil isolated from Echinophora spinosa on different bacterial and fungal species. Chemical analysis (GC/MS) showed that δ3-carene (60,86 %), α-phellandrene (7,12%), p-cymene (6,22 %), myrcene (4,82 %) and β-phellandrene (2,73 %) were dominant components in this oil. Essential oil tested showed good antimicrobial activity. Antimicrobial potential of this oil was higher than potential of commercial antimicrobial drugs tested, streptomycin, bifonozole and ketoconazole.
