Abstract

In the present study we studied the effect of organic manures on essential oil content (%) and chemical profile of essential oil. GC-MS were used to screening of the chemical composition of the essential oil hydro-distilled from full flowering stage of the new cultivar variety CIM Arogya of Artemisia annua. More than forty compounds were identified, representing 92.5% of the total oil. The main bioactive compounds identified in all the analyzed samples were 1-8 Cineol, Camphor and (3E, 5E)-2, 6- Dimethylcota-3, 5, 7 trien-2-ol in all treatments. Content (%) of bioactive compounds and chemical composition affect by organic manure
