편백나무 정유의 소취효과 및 항균력 평가

Abstract

C. obtusa, an essential oil produced in Jeollanamdo Gangjin, is the most effective plant oil for easing Sick House Syndrome, having an effect similar to a therapeutic walk in the woods and acting as a sterilizer. In light of its medicinal importance, its composition, antibacterial activity and ability to mitigate an offensive odor have been analyzed. Through GC-MS, I confirmed that it contains approximately 50 components, 80.30% of which are various monoterpenes. It was effective at alleviating malodors from formaldehyde, ammonia, trimetylamine and methylmercaptan as determined in colorimetric gas detection tube tests in comparison with lemongrass and clove leaf essential oil. I obtained from Minimal Inhibition Concentration(MIC) of C. obtusa, higher concentrations will lead to increased antibacterial activity. Therefore it is estimated that utility value of it will be grow more and more.
