Results: The yield of essential oil from leaves was observed and a total of fifty constituents were recognized with the help of Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS).
Conclusion: The crucial oil also has antifungal and antibacterial properties against some infectious strains. The engrossing characteristics of the oil constitution were the existence of dictamnol in good amounts. In the current research assignment, plant samples were gathered from the hilly regions of Uttarkashi for oil extraction and identification of chemical constituents.
