Chemical composition and antibacterial activity of essential oils from three aromatic plants of the Zingiberaceae family in Malaysia

The essential oils of Boesenbergia rotunda (Temu Kunci), Curcuma mangga (Temu Pauh) and Kaempferia galanga (Cekur) were extracted using steam distillation, and the main constituents of the essential oils were analysed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). More than 10 constituents were...
