Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activities of Three Artemisia vulgaris (L.) Essential Oils from Uttarakhand, India

Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activities of Three Artemisia vulgaris (L.) Essential Oils from... AbstractThree essential oils extracted from three samples of Artemisia vulgaris L. (AV1, AV2, AV3) collected from three places of Garhwal region of Uttarakhand Himalaya (India) were evaluated for their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. All the essential oil samples showed substantial antioxidant activity at 60 μL, chiefly essential oil sample AV2 showed highest activity (79.03 and 73.50 %) during both β-carotene bleaching and DPPH bioassays, respectively. The oil sample AV2 also exhibited highest antimicrobial potential against all the bacterial and fungal species with range of 19.50-23.23 mm zone of inhibition against tested 5 bacterial strains and with 72.40-82.50 % range of percent mycelial inhibition against 5 tested fungal species. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Biologically Active Products from Nature Taylor & Francis
