Abstract
Chemical, chromatographic, and spectral methods were used to show that the main components of the lipid extract of flowers and leaves are free and bound aliphatic and cyclic alcohols (sterols and triterpenols) and essential oil. It was shown that the lipid extract of Artemisia annua has a positive influence on skin metabolism and possesses anti-inflammatory activity.
