Abstract

The purpose of the present research was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the essential oil extracted from Pinus koraiensis seed against pathogens related to acne. The essential oil was extracted by steam distillation method. The chemical compositions of essential oil were analyzed by GC-MS. Alpha-pinene (29.87%), D-limonene (19.26%), betapinene (11.19%), beta-myrcene (3.84%), n-hexadecanoi acid (3.2%), beta-caryphyllene (2.72%), and cyclohexene (2.17%) were main components. This essential oil had antimicrobial activities against Malasseizia furfur, Propionibacterium acnes, and Staphylococcus epidermidis.
