Chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of essential oil of Prangos ferulaceae (L.) Lindl from Iran.
The hydrodistilled essential oils of fruits and umbels of Prangos ferulaceae (L.) Lindl growing in Iran were analysed by gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer. Six compounds, comprising 93.7 and 94.7% of the total fruits and umbels oils, were identified, respectively. alpha-Pinene and cis-ocimene are the major components of the oils. The essential oils show high antibacterial effect against Bacillus cereus.
