- Abstract
This article, published in Chemistry of Natural Compounds, discusses the volatile oil components and antioxidant activity of Popowia pisocarpa, a flowering plant in the Annonaceae family. The plant is widely distributed in tropical regions such as Africa, Madagascar, India, Indonesia, China, Malaysia, and Australia. The essential oil of P. pisocarpa was obtained from the leaves and analyzed using GC and GC-MS. The study identified 35 chemical components, with sesquiterpene hydrocarbons being the most dominant. The essential oil also exhibited moderate antioxidant activity. The article highlights the scarcity of research on the essential oil composition of P. pisocarpa and provides valuable information for further studies.
