According to reports, the EOs are a blend of terpenes, terpene derivatives, non-terpenes, thymol and its derivatives. Additionally, thymol derivatives predominated in the essential oils. When compared to the reference standards Tioconazole and Gentamicin for fungi (28 mm) and bacteria (40–35 mm), respectively, the essential oil exhibited a moderate inhibitory zone (18–10 mm) on the tested organisms. Thu, the essential oils were categorized as bacteriostatic. On the DPPH radical scavenger properties, interaction between the constituents identified in the essential oils demonstrated a distinctive a free radical scavenging activity. The chemical components of A. flagellaris’ essential oils play a key role in both its antioxidant and antibacterial properties. |
