Essential Oils of Piper pendulispicum C. DC. and Piper hymenophyllum Miq.: Chemical Composition and Anti-microbial activity

Do Ngoc Dai et al.

Summary: Chemical compositions of essential oils from two Vietnamese Piper plants, Piper pendulispicum C. DC. and P. hymenophyllum Miq., were identified through hydro-distillation and GC-FID/MS analysis. The essential oils of P. pendulispicum leaf and stem were mainly composed of sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, with bicyclogermacrene and beta-caryophyllene as the principal compounds. P. hymenophyllum leaf oil was mainly composed of monoterpene hydrocarbons, with alpha-pinene and beta-pinene as the principal compounds. These essential oils exhibited better antimicrobial activity than the positive control streptomycin against three Gram-positive bacteria and comparable activity to cycloheximide against Candida albicans. Overall, the essential oil of P. pendulispicum showed greater potential for antimicrobial treatment than P. hymenophyllum leaf oil.
