  • Title: Antifungal constituents of the essential oil fraction of Artemisia dracunculus L. Var. dracunculus.
    Author: Meepagala KM, Sturtz G, Wedge DE.
    Journal: J Agric Food Chem; 2002 Nov 20; 50(24):6989-92. PubMed ID: 12428948.
    Abstract:
    The isolation and structure elucidation of antifungal constituents of the steam-distilled essential oil fraction of Artemisia dracunculus are described. Antifungal activities of 5-phenyl-1,3-pentadiyne and capillarin against Colletrotichum fragariae, Colletrotichum gloeosporioides, and Colletrotichum acutatum are reported for the first time. The relative abundance of 5-phenyl-1,3-pentadiyne is about 11% of the steam-distilled oil, as determined by GC-MS. Methyleugenol was also isolated and identified as an antifungal constituent of the oil.
