Abstract

Gymnolaena oaxacana is an endemic species from Puebla and Oaxaca states (Mexico). This plant is used to treat gastrointestinal diseases; however its medicinal properties have not been investigated. In this study, chemical composition and the antimicrobial effect of G. oaxacana essential oil was determined. The essential oil was obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC-MS. 84.6% of its constituents were monoterpenes: γ-terpinene, -Ocimene and β-pinene were the most abundant. The oil showed broad-spectrum antimicrobial effect by inhibiting population growth of nineteen bacterial strains, seven strains of yeasts and four strains of filamentous fungi. The most sensitive strains were: Vibrio cholerae INDRE 206, V. cholerae No. 01 (MIC=0.13 mg/mL) and Trichophyton mentagrophytes (FC50=1.03 mg/mL). This is the first report of the chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of the essential oil and validated the ethno botanical use of G. oaxacana by the people for the treatment of gastrointestinal infections
