Abstract
This study aimed to compare the essential oil yield and chemical composition of Artemisia herba-alba in the Anti-Atlas region, considering different harvest dates. The antibacterial and antifungal properties were also evaluated. Essential oils yields were 1.87 %, 1.85 %, and 2.35 % for the April, June and October harvests, respectively. Chromatographic analysis identified 21 compounds, with camphor, 1,8-cineole, and camphene as the main constituents. Artemisia herba-alba essential oils exhibited significant antibacterial and antifungal activities. The October-harvested oil showed notable antibacterial effects against Staphylococcus epidermidis (20 mm), while the June-collected essential oil demonstrated strong activity with a 20.66 mm inhibition zone against Acinobacter baumannii. Furthermore, the June-collected oil displayed significant antifungal activity with a 70.58 % inhibition index against Fusarium culmorum. Despite varying reducing powers with IC50 values, the antioxidant activity of the essential oils was relatively weaker compared to l-ascorbic acid, possibly due to the prevalence of non-phenolic compounds.
期刊介绍:
Chemical Data Collections (CDC) provides a publication outlet for the increasing need to make research material and data easy to share and re-use. Publication of research data with CDC will allow scientists to: -Make their data easy to find and access -Benefit from the fast publication process -Contribute to proper data citation and attribution -Publish their intermediate and null/negative results -Receive recognition for the work that does not fit traditional article format. The research data will be published as ''data articles'' that support fast and easy submission and quick peer-review processes. Data articles introduced by CDC are short self-contained publications about research materials and data. They must provide the scientific context of the described work and contain the following elements: a title, list of authors (plus affiliations), abstract, keywords, graphical abstract, metadata table, main text and at least three references. The journal welcomes submissions focusing on (but not limited to) the following categories of research output: spectral data, syntheses, crystallographic data, computational simulations, molecular dynamics and models, physicochemical data, etc.
