Composition and antimicrobial activity of the essential oil ofAcronychia pedunculata(L.) Miq. from Vietnam

Abstract: The chemical composition and the antimicrobial activity of the essential oil isolated from aerial parts of Acronychia pedunculata (L.) Miq. from Vietnam are reported. Analysis was carried out by GC (RI), GC-MS and 13C NMR. Thirty-four compounds were identified, accounting for 92.8% of the oil. The major constituents were alpha-pinene (57.4%) and (E)-beta-caryophyllene (13.6%). The essential oil of A. pedunculata was shown to possess a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity against various bacteria, particula… Show more

“…To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of antibacterial activity of C. alpinus. In contrast, antibacterial activities and phytochemistry have been described for A. pedunculata [9], B. alnoides [10], G. cowa [11][12][13], and A. reticulata [14,15]. Furthermore, the extract of Rhus chinensis exhibited potent antibacterial activity against Bacillus species with MIC values of 31.3 µg/ml (Table 1).…”

“…Some Acronychia spp. have been used in folk medicines of indigenous Asian and Australian populations for the treatments of diarrhoea, asthma, ulcers, rheumatism, fever and parasitic infections [ 13 , 14 , 15 ]. About 60 compounds including acetophenones, flavonoids, quinoline and acridone alkaloids have been identified from approximately half of the Acronychia spp.…”
