Abstract: | In this study, the fixed oil of Swietenia mahagoni was extracted from seeds. The oil was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and 24 components were identified. Major constituents were: 9-octadecenoic acid (Z)-methyl ester(52.31%), methyl stearate(19.60%), hexadecanoic acid methyl ester(13.99%),methyl 10-trans 12-cisoctadecadienoate( 5.92%), eicosanoic acid methyl ester(3.50%) . The oil was screened for antibacterial and antifungal activities . Cup plate agar diffusion bioassay was used to assess the antimicrobial activity of the oil against Gram positive ( Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus ), Gram negative bacteria ( Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeroginosa ) and one fungal species (Candida albicans). The results indicate that Swietenia mahagoni oil possess bioactive compounds having significant antimicrobial properties. |
