Caracterización del aceite esencial de la especie Peperomia subspathulata(Piperaceae) y evaluación de su capacidad como agente antimicrobiano

The genus Peperomia Comes from the Piperaceae Family is characterized by presenting a wide spectrum of biological activities, in Colombia There are many Genus species that any research have been done studies have been done, Like the Peperomia subspathulata in which the essential oil has been obtained by steam distillation, the Peperomia subspathulata and characterized by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS). That antimicrobial activity was evaluated against the bacterium Escherichia coli by means of the diffusion method in agar by the well drilling technique and dilution in broth in order to establish its potential as an antimicrobial agent. The main compounds identified were safrole (69.48%), α-bisabolol (16.13%), myristicin (3.65%) and xanthoxylin (1. 01%) in the essential oil and safrole (37.95%), α-bisabolol (34.56%), myristicin (5.77%) and xanthoxylin (7.45%) in the hydrolate. The essential oil showed that it does not have an inhibitory effect against Escherichia coli. It is recommended to confirm the identified compounds by using standards and to the oil antimicrobial potential in other bacteria
