|||||||||
The
major constituent in eucalyptus leaves is a volatile oil known as eucalyptol
(1,8-cineol). In order to provide an effective expectorant and antiseptic action,
the leaf oil should contain approximately 70-85% eucalyptol. Eucalyptus oil
is said to function in a fashion similar to that of menthol by acting on receptors
in the nasal mucosa, leading to a reduction in symptoms such as nasal congestion.
In test tube studies, eucalyptus species have been shown to possess antibacterial
actions against such organisms as bacillus subtilis, as well as several strains
of streptococcus.*
