Analysis and evaluation of the antimicrobial and anticancer activities of the essential oil isolated from Foeniculum vulgare from Hamedan, Iran

Abstract: In this study, biological properties of the essential oil isolated from seeds of Foeniculum vulgare (F. vulgare) were evaluated. GC-MS analysis revealed Trans-Anethole (80.63%), L-Fenchone (11.57%), Estragole (3.67%) and Limonene (2.68%) were the major compounds of the essential oil. Antibacterial activity of the essential oil against nine Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains was studied using disc diffusion and micro-well dilution assays. Essential oil exhibited the antibacterial activity against three Gra… Show more

“…For instance, it is found that oil extracts of F. vulgare are effective against different strains of gram positive and gram negative food spoiling bacteria. 22 Similarly, it was concluded that F. vulgare is an effective antibacterial agent against different bacteria in the form of aqueous extract. 23 antimicrobial properties are associated with bacterial susceptibility.…”
