Essential oils from plants used in traditional medicine are known as a rich source of chemically diverse compounds with specific biological activities. Achillea millefolium essential oil (AEO) was screened for vitro activity against Babesia canis. The AEO obtained by hydrodistillation and analysed gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS). GC-MS revealed the presence 47 oil. Those...

The essential oils of Peucedanum ruthenicum M. Bieb. (Umbelliferae) leaves, flowers and fruits were prepared by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC and GC-MS and the composition of the three essential oils were compared. Thirty-three, thirty-seven and thirty-one compounds were identified in leaves, flowers and fruits essential oils representing 89.13%, 88.66% and 76.45% of total oils respectiv...

Araştırma Göller Yöresi (Türkiye) florasında farklı lokasyonlarda doğal olarak yetişen Smyrnium connatum Boiss & Kotschy meyve uçucu yağ oranı ve bileşenlerinin belirlenmesi amacıyla 2016 yılında yürütülmüştür. Meyve örneklerinin oranları Clavenger tipi hidro-distilasyon cihazında, bileşenleri ise GC/MS’de belirlenmiştir. Farklı lokasyonlardan alınan % 1.75 ile 5.00 arasında geniş bir varya...

Salvia desoleana Atzei & V. Picci is an indigenous species in Sardinia island used in folk medicine to treat menstrual, digestive and central nervous system diseases. Nowadays, it is widely cultivated for the pleasant smell of its essential oil (EO), whose antimicrobial and antifungal activities have already been screened. This study evaluated the in vitro anti-Herpes Simplex Virus-2 (HSV-2) ac...

The chemical composition of the essential oils of different Allium nigrum L. organs and the antibacterial activity were evaluated. The study is particularly interesting because hitherto there are no reports on the antibacterial screening of this species with specific chemical composition. Therefore, essential oils from different organs (flowers, stems, leaves and bulbs) obtained separately by h...

The essential oils of water-distilled aerial parts of Anthemis pseudocotula and Anthemis cretica subsp. pontica (Asteraceae) were analysed by GC-MS. As a result thirty-five and forty compounds were identified representing 93.1% and 89.0% of the oils, respectively. The main compounds of A. pseudocotula were 1,8-cineole (39.40%), camphor (9.36%), artemisiaketone (5.68%), filifolene (5.15%), and a...
