Chemical and Biological Characteristics of Essential Oil Isolated From Fresh Flower of Tripleurospermum Auriculatum
Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 9
Abstract
Eesential oil extracted by hydrodistillation from flower of Tripleurospermum auriculatum and characterized by GC/MS. The main compounds identified in the oil were α-pinene (23.27%), linalyl isobtyrate (17.92%), 4-Carene (14.17%), boreniol (11.90%), pinocarvone (9.07%), p-cineol (7.92%), α-Terpenen-4-ol (6.77%), Piperiton (5.71%). Antimicrobial activity of essential oil of Tripleurospermum auriculatum was investigated in this study. Testing was conducted against 8 pathogenic microorganisms, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Morganella sp. and Proteus sp. ( gram-negative bacteria), Entrococcus Faecalis, Micrococcus sp. and Streptococcus agalactia ( gram-positive bacteria) in addition Candida albicans as yeast like fungi. Activity and minimum inhibitory concentration were determined using Agar well assay method. The gram -ve bacteria were more sensitive as compared to the gram +ve bacteria and essential oil of Tripleurospermum auriculatum had no effect on the growth of Candida albicans. Gentamycine and Ampicilline (10μg) were used as positive controls respectively.
