Abstract

The essential oil of three-needle pine twigs (Pinus kesiya Royle) growing in Vietnam was studied for the first time. Essential oils were isolated from young twigs. Two methods of extraction were used, conventional heating hydrodistillation (CHHD) and microwave irradiation hydrodistillation (MIHD). The physical and chemical properties of oils were measured. The extracted oils were determined by GC/FID and GC/MSD indicated that the main components of the oils were α-pinene, β-phellandrene, and trans- caryophyllene. Their antimicrobial properties were also studied.
