Essential oils, phytochemicals and bioactivities of piper caninum blume
The chemical compositions of the essential oils and phytochemicals of Piper caninum have been studied. The essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation technique using Dean-stark apparatus from fresh leaves and stems. The oils were analyzed by capillary GC and GC-MS. The chemical compositions w...
