Abstract

Expanding the range of herbal drugs is among the priorities of the modern pharmacy. The analysis presented in this article is drawn from a broader qualitative study examining the composition of Anemone nemorosa L. chloroform fraction. The study revealed 38 compounds, and 32 of them were identified. The investigated lipophilic extract has an antimicrobial activity both in terms of gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms. The maximal antimicrobial action of the investigated extract was shown to Escherichia coli. The significant content of biologically active substances in the lipophilic volatile fraction of Anemone nemorosa indicates the prospects for further study.

Keywords
