Chemical composition and antifungal activity of essential oil of Chrysactinia mexicana gray.
J Agric Food Chem. 2005 Jun 01; 53(11):4347-9.JA

Abstract

The chemical composition of the essential oil of Chysactinia mexicana was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Seventeen compounds were characterized; eucalyptol (41.3%), piperitone (37.7%), and linalyl acetate (9.1%) were found as the major components. The essential oil of leaves and piperitone completely inhibited Aspergillus flavus growth at relatively low concentrations (1.25 and 0.6 mg/mL, respectively).
