Abstract

The essential oil were extracted from the leaf of (Hemsl.) Yang by a hydrothermal method and then analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The leaf oil mainly included -copaene (5.44%), -muurolene (7.32%), -cadinene (11.44%), 1s-calamenene (5.18%). (Hemsl.) Yang leaf essential oil had significant inhibitory activity against and , the potential antitumor activity towards leukemia, breast, and colon cancer cell lines was good. (Hemsl.) Yang leaf essential oil had weaker activity on the four tested bacteria, it exhibited a certain role in promoting glucose uptake by adipocytes.
