Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrophotometry Analysis Report about Pumpkin (Cucurbita maxima, Cucurbitaceae) Flowers
Journal Title: Medicinal & Analytical Chemistry International Journal - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
This Study was done to investigate the phytochemical and antimicrobial activities of pumpkin flowers extracts (ethanolic, chloroform and ether extract –by using GC-MS methods to degrade the active components in the ethanol extracted flowers. Pseudomonas aeruginosa growth was inhibited only by chloroform fraction; ether fraction has activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aereus. Chloroform has no activity against Staphylococcus aereus. Nine constituents were degraded by Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrophotometry (GC-MS) analysis. Their structure and formulae were pertaining to the GC-MS analysis of pumpkin flowers were given in table and Figure 2.
