Evaluation of Artemisia maritima L. Essential Oil for its Chemical and Biological Properties against Some Foodborne Pathogens

Evaluation of Artemisia maritima L. Essential Oil for its Chemical and Biological Properties... AbstractIn the present study, GC and GC-MS analysis of Artemisia maritima essential oil revealed identification of 46 major and minor constituents representing 97.66 % of oil sample. Of 46 components, 1,8-cineole (25.0 %) was turned out as a major component followed by chrysanthenone (23.62 %), germacrene D (7.37 %) and borneol (3.36 %). The oil has potent antibacterial activity against Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Proteus vulgaris, Salmonella typhimurium, Streptococcus pyogenes, Staphylococcus aureus with MIC and MBC values ranges of 391-3128 and 782-6256 µg ml-1. On antifungal screening against Aspergillus flavus, A. niger, A. ochraceus, A. parasiticus, A. terries, Fusarium moniliforme and Penicillium chrysogenum, the oil was found to be more susceptible towards A. niger (60.6 %), A. ochraceus (56.1 %) and A. terreus (58.3 %). The findings concluded that essential oil of A. maritima can be used as potential antimicrobial agent against food borne pathogens. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Analytical Chemistry Letters Taylor & Francis
