Abstract:
Chemical components of essential oil of rhizoma (Alpinia pinnanensis T. L. Wu & Senjen) were analysed by capillary GC and GC/MS methods. Antimicrobiological activities were tested. Results showed principal components of essential oil are sesquitecpenoid and their derivatives (nearly 70%). The antibacteria spectrums of essential oil were broad, especially it has strong activities for negative gram bacteria, E. coli and S. aureus
