Public ISBD [article]  inThe journal of essential oil research > Vol. 18 N° Spécial (Juillet 2006) . - pp. 19-25 Titre : The geographical variation and antimicrobial activity of african wormwood (Artemisia afra Jacq.) essential oil Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Alvaro M. Viljoen, Auteur ; Sandy F. Van Vuuren, Auteur ; Tebogo Gwebu, Auteur Année de publication : 2013 Article en page(s) : pp. 19-25 Note générale : Génie Chimique Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Artemisia afra Asteraceae Essential oil composition 1,8-cineole ketone α  -thujone β  -thujone alcohol Camphor Antimicrobial activity Death kinetics Résumé : The aerial parts of 16 individual Artemisia afra plants from four natural populations were hydrodistilled and the essential oil analyzed by GC/MS. The oil composition varied quantitatively and qualitatively within and between natural populations and showed no correlation to the geographical distribution. The antimicrobial activity was demonstrated by means of time-kill methodology using the respiratory pathogens C. neoformans and K. pneunwniae. Antimicrobial activity was most prominent within 10 min at concentration 0.75% for K. pneumoniae and within 60 min at concentration 1% for C. neofomans. Investigation of the four major compounds most abundant in the A. afra oil (artemisia ketone, 1,8-cineole, α- and β-thujone) indicated minimal antimicrobial activity when investigated independently and in various combinations against K. pneumoniae.
