Sandalwood oil, the essential oil of Santalum album L., was tested for in vitro antiviral activity against Herpes simplex viruses-1 and -2. It was found that the replication of these viruses was inhibited in the presence of the oil. This effect was dose-dependent and more pronounced against HSV-1. A slight diminution of the effect was observed at higher multiplicity of infections. The oil was not virucidal and showed no cytotoxicity at the concentrations tested.
檀香精油,即檀香(Santalum album L.)的挥发油,针对单纯疱疹病毒1型和2型进行了体外抗病毒活性测试。结果发现,在该精油存在的情况下,这些病毒的复制受到抑制。这种作用呈剂量依赖性,对单纯疱疹病毒1型的抑制作用更明显。在较高感染复数时观察到作用略有减弱。在所测试的浓度下,该精油无杀病毒作用,且无细胞毒性。
