Abstract

Steam distilled oils of some species of the genus Citrus and Cymbopogon citratus were analyzed by GC-MS. It is observed that citral b was the most common constituent of the oils, which could be a good inhibitor of beta-glucuronidase as all the tested essential oils showed significant inhibition of beta-glucuronidase. IC50 values of a mixture of citral a and b also proved the hypothesis. The same oils also exhibited positive response against tested microbes.
