| chemical characterization (gc/ms and nmr fingerprinting) and bioactivities of south-african pelargonium capitatum (l.) l' her. (geraniaceae) essential oil. | chemical fingerprinting of commercial pelargonium capitatum (geraniaceae) essential oil samples of south african origin was performed by gc, gc/ms, and (13) c- and (1) h-nmr. thirty-seven compounds were identified, among which citronellol (32.71%) and geraniol (19.58%) were the most abundant. nmr spectra of characteristic chemicals were provided. broad-spectrum bioactivity properties of the oil were evaluated and compared with those of commercial thymus vulgaris essential oil with the aim to obt ... | 2011 | 21480508 |
| properties and limits of some essential oils: chemical characterisation, antimicrobial activity, interaction with antibiotics and cytotoxicity. | because of the emergence of multi-drug resistance bacteria and fungi, alternatives to conventional antimicrobial therapy are needed. this study aims to evaluate in vitro the antimicrobial activity of: mirtus communis, coriandrum sativum, pelargonium capitatum, cuminum cyminum, ocimum basilicum, citrus aurantium amara, cymbopogon. winterianus, cymbopogon martini, salvia sclarea, melaleuca alternifolia and mentha suaveolens essential oils on bacteria and fungi, in relation to their chemical compos ... | 2016 | 26395247 |
