Chemical profile and antimicrobial potential of essential oils

Více o knize

The study investigates the chemical profiles and antimicrobial properties of essential oils from C. citratus, O. basilicum, and A. rosaeodora. Utilizing hydrodistillation and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, the research identifies key components such as linalool in A. rosaeodora and geranial in C. citratus. Antimicrobial tests reveal varying inhibition zones, with O. basilicum showing the strongest effect against S. aureus. The findings highlight the potential of these essential oils in controlling pathogenic microorganisms, supporting their application in health and safety contexts.
