ABSTRACT
Syzygium aromaticum, often referred to as clove, is a spice used in cooking that also has medicinal applications. Clove finds its use in cosmetics, medicine, gastronomy, and agriculture, owing to its rich content of bioactive compounds including gallic acid, flavonoids, eugenol acetate, and eugenol. Aim of the present study of essential oil obtained by hydro-distillation from S. aromaticum (L.) Merr. buds were analyzed by Gas Chromatography - Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and its antimicrobial potential of S. aromaticum (L.) Merr. Buds studied by disc diffusion methods. Results of the present study, obtained the essential oils of Syzygium aromaticum (L.) Merr buds analysed by thirty- eight active components were identified. The main components of essential oils of Syzygium aromaticum (L.) Merr buds were present in the eugenol (63.52%), Eugenyl acetate (11.4%), β- caryophyllene (2.35%) and α-cadinol (2.43%). The antimicrobial activity of essential oils of S. aromaticum (L.) Merr buds were maximum activity active against S. typhi, A.niger and A.flavous. The findings of the present study indicate that the essential oils derived from S.aromaticum (L.) Merr buds were exhibit in the significant antibacterial and antifungal properties.
Keywords: Syzygium aromaticum (L.) Merr., bud oils, essential oil composition, GC-MS, eugenol.
