Extraction, Chemical Composition and Antibacterial Activities of The Essential Oil of Salix Babylonica in Viet Nam

Abstract

This study investigated the chemical compositions and the antibacterial activities of Salix babylonica essential oils from Viet Nam. The gas chromatography-mass spectrometry system was used to analyze the chemical compositions of essential oils. The antibacterial activities of S. babylonica Eos were determined by using diameter of inhibition zones. The result showed that S. babylonica EOs exhibited antibacterial activity against the tested bacteria in a concentration-dependent manner.
