Key Points

This research aims to evaluate the efficiency of ultrasound pretreatment combined with microwave-assisted hydrodistillation for extracting essential oils from Pinus pumila.
Uses GC-MS analysis to assess terpenoid content of essential oils.
Compares essential oils extracted by ultrasound pretreatment combined with microwave-assisted hydrodistillation (UP-MAH) and traditional hydrodistillation (HD).
Evaluates antifungal activity against multiple Fusarium species.
Terpenoid content of PNEO extracted by UP-MAH reached 96.03%, compared to 85.59% from HD.
PNEO extracted via UP-MAH demonstrated stronger antifungal activity against several Fusarium species.

Demonstrates enhanced terpenoid extraction and antifungal properties in Pinus pumila essential oil, indicating a novel extraction method.

Abstract

emissions. GC-MS analysis further demonstrated that the terpenoid content of PNEO extracted by UP-MAH reached 96.03%, which was 10.44% higher than that obtained by HD (85.59%). In addition, PNEO extracted by UP-MAH exhibited stronger antifungal activity against multiple Fusarium species. These results provide a green, efficient, and novel approach for the extraction of high-quality essential oils from structurally dense and oil-rich plant materials.
