Summary, etc. <p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Cyperus articulatus</em> L. is widely distributed in various geographical regions of the world, and it has been used as a folk medicine for treating haemorrhoids, diarrhoea, and other diseases. The present study aimed to analyze the chemical constituents and antimicrobial activities of essential oil (EO) extracted from <em>C. articulatus</em> grown in the Karnataka region to explore its potential pharmaceutical usage. The EO from the rhizomes of <em>C. articulatus</em> was extracted by hydro-distillation and was tested for its antimicrobial activities against selected bacteria (<em>Staphylococcus aureus</em>, <em>Salmonella enterica serovar Abony</em>, and <em>Escherichia coli</em>) and fungi (<em>Candida albicans</em>, <em>Aspergillus flavus</em>, and <em>Aspergillus niger</em>). The EO yield was 1.24 g/100 g of dried rhizome powder. The EO recorded a significant inhibition against <em>S. aureus</em> and <em>A. flavus</em>. The GC-MS analysis of EO showed the predominance of important metabolites such as mustakone (20.2%), longifolenaldehyde (14.9%), cedroxyde (8.7%), α-copaene (4.7%), cyperene (2%), cyperotundone (2.6%), khusinol (2.3%), and corymbolone (1.1%) along with several other monoterpenoids and sesquiterpenoids. The study revealed the EO of <em>C. articulatus</em> as a promising source of antibacterial and antifungal metabolites which may lead to its application in managing bacterial and fungal infections and storage mould.</p>
