Chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of essential oil from the rhizomes of Amomum cannicarpum.
Fitoterapia. 2006 Jul; 77(5):392-4.F

Abstract

The essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation of the rhizomes of Amomum cannicarpum was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Thirty-four compounds were identified, of which the major components were beta-terpineol (13.4%), beta-pinene (9.4%) and alpha-pinene (6.9%). The essential oil showed significant antimicrobial activity.
