Chemical Composition, Antimicrobial and Antiviral Activities of the Essential Oil of Elsholtzia densa Benth.

doi:A

Abstract

Abstract: The essential oil of Elsholtzia densa Benth has been obtained by using water distillation and analyzed by GC-MS. The content of the essential oil of E. densa was 0.12%. Retention indices and mass spectral data were used to identify 26 oil components, represented 76.04% of the total essential oil. In the antimicrobial and antiviral activities assay, the essential oil exhibited antimicrobial and antiviral activities.

Key words: Elsholtzia densa Benth., essential oil, antimicrobial activity, antiviral activity, GC-MS
