Composition, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of the seed essential oil of Calocedrus formosana from Taiwan.
Nat Prod Commun. 2011 Jan; 6(1):133-6.NP

Abstract

The hydrodistillated seed essential oil of Calocedrus formosana was analyzed to determine its composition and yield. Twenty-seven compounds were identified, the main ones being alpha-pinene (63.8%), totarol (9.9%) and ferruginol (8.9%). Monoterpene hydrocarbons (73.5%) and oxygenated diterpenes (18.8%) were the predominant groups of compounds. The seed essential oil exhibited excellent antioxidant, antimicrobial and anti-wood-decay fungal activities.
