Abstract
Essential oils obtained from the leaves, seed buds and fruits of Eucalyptus torelliana F. Muel plant by hydro-distillation technique were evaluated using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry method. The major components of all the essential oils from the Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectral analysis are: 4-hexen2-one, phenol, 7-Azabicyclo[4.1.0] heptane, 2-isopropyl phenol, 2,5-dimethyl-3-methylene-1,5-Hexadiene, 1,8nonadiyn, 1-phenylmethanol, n-Hexanol, 2-phenylethanol, Methyl propanoate and haptanitrile. The presences of these compounds suggest potentials of the leaves, seed buds and fruits of Eucalyptus torelliana plant for possible uses as antiseptics, disinfectants and food additives
