|
The essential oils from Eukalyptus golbulus (Myrtaceae), Pinus sylvestris (Pinaceae), Santalum album (Santalaceae), Styrax tonkinensis (Styracaceae) and Thymus vulgaris (Labiatae) have been analysed compared by GC-MS. 1,8-cineol was dominantly contained in the oil of Eucalyptus globulus (54.02£¥) while benzoic acid(60.24£¥) and thymol(25£¥)were the representing compounds in case of Styrax tonkinensis and Thymus vulgaris, respectively. The essential oil from Santalum album contained much amount of alpha-santalol (36.14£¥). In Pinus sivestris oil, endo-bornyl acetate and alpha-pinene showed the highest content, 8.78£¥ and 8.16£¥, respectively. The inhibiting activity of the oils against broth culture of Blastoschizomyces capitatus, a pathogenic fungus, was investigated and compared by broth dilution method and disk diffusion test.
