Chemical Composition and Biological Activities of Eucalyptus globulus Essential Oil
Abstract
Eucalyptus globulus essential oil (EGEO), dominated by 1,8-cineole (63.1%), p-cymene, alpha-pinene and limonene (over 99% monoterpenes), was analysed for antimicrobial, antibiofilm, antioxidant and insecticidal activity. EGEO showed antioxidant capacity, antimicrobial activity (strongest against Gram-positive bacteria and microscopic fungi, especially in the vapour phase), antibiofilm activity and insecticidal activity.
