[Chemical constituents of the essential oil from the fruits of Lindera glauca and its antifungal activities].
    Zhong yao cai = Zhongyaocai = Journal of Chinese medicinal materials, 1999, Volume: 22, Issue:6

    The chemical constituents of the two essential oils extracted from the fruits of Lindera glauca by hydrodistillation and petroleum ether have been studied by means of GC-MS. Among which, 32 kinds of constituents were identified in distilling oil and 22 kinds in solvent oil. The main components in distilling oil were n-carpric acid (25.39%), germacrene A (10.71%), n-dodecanole acid (10.08%), epishyobunol acetate (7.29%) and caryophyllene oxide (5.44%), and in solvent oil were camphene (17.55%), 3,6,6-trimethyl-2-norpinene (16.85%), capric acid, ethyl ester (13.61%), eucalyptol (8.10%), and alpha-cis-ocimene (7.38%), In vitro the distilling oil exhibited more manifest antifungal properties than the solvent oil with MIC between 0.03-0.5 ml/L for pathogenic fungi species and 1.0-1.5 ml/L for moulds. Almost having not contained the sesquiterpenoids and their derivatives in the solvent oil maybe were a reason of poor inhibitory.
