[Study on chemical constituents and anti-bacterial activity of volatile oil from seed of Aquilaria sinensis].
Volatile oil from the seed of Aquilaria sinensis was extracted with Petroleum ether. Anti-bacterial bioassay of the oil against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was carried out by paper disco diffusion method. The result showed that the oil possessed inhibitory activity towards MRSA. 19 compounds of the volatile oil were identified by GC-MS analysis.
