Chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of the essential oil from Artemisia herbaalba Asso growing in the north west of Algeria

Abstract

The study was carried out on essential oil of Artemisia herbaalba. CG/SM qualitative analysis of white wormwood essential oil allowed us to identify 99.61% of the total peak areas. The main one is Bicyclo [2.2.1] heptan-2-one, 1,7,7-trimethyl-, (1R)- (29.82%). Other main components are determined as 1,3-Cyclopentadiene, 1,2,5,5- tetramethyl- (15.58), Eucalyptol (6,51%) in the oil. On a biological level, evaluation of the essential oil revealed an interesting antimicrobial activity towards Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris(Chickpea Fusarium Wilt), Fusarium solani (Chickpea root-rot) and Globisporangium ultimum (Aleppo pine damping off and root-rot diseases).Results are also interesting for the pharmaceutical and agro-food industry fields using essential oil and this oil can be used in disease management against these soil-borne pathogens.
