ESSENTIAL OIL ANALYSIS OF Cinnamosma madagascariensis - Physicochemical properties, antioxidant activity and balm formulation

This study contributes to the valorization of Cinnamosma madagascariensis essential oil in the field of medicinal plants. The essential oil was extracted from the leaves using the Clevenger hydrodistillation method. Physico-chemical analyses demonstrated the purity and high quality of the extracted essential oil. The essential oil components were analyzed and molecules such as sabinene, terpinene, 1,8 cineol, etc. were identified. Toxicity tests were carried out and the results showed no toxicity. The antioxidant activity test of the essential oil showed positive efficacy. Finally, a balm was produced using Cinnamosma madagascariensis essential oil as the active ingredient.
