The present investigation focused on the toxicological efficacy of essential oil of Pinus roxburghii Sarg. The oils were extracted from the leaves using hydro-distillation method. Further its toxicological efficacy was evaluated against Escherichia coli (MTCC-723),Klebsiella pneumoniae(MTCC No. 4032),Salmonella typhimurium (MTCC-3231) andVibrio cholerae (MTCC-3906). Toxicological efficacy of essential oil was found highest against S. typhimurium. Inhibiting activity was also found against K. pneumoniae and E. coli (MTCC-723). Least activity was recorded against V. cholerae. Hence, essential oil from leaves of P. roxburghii exhibit great potential for the development of eco-friendly, nontoxic, cost-effective anti-bacterial herbal drug formulations.
