Abstract:The genus Psidium is recognized for its economic value and the species that produce essential oils with notable biological activities. This study investigated the characteristics of the essential oil from the leaves of Psidium myrtoides and Psidium cattleyanum under different drying temperatures. We aimed to understand how drying temperatures affect the yield and composition of the essential oil, as well as its biological activity. The oils obtained from the leaves of P. myrtoides and P. cattleyanum dried in a… Show more
