GC-MS analysis of the essential oils from aerial parts of Thymus migricus Klokov & Des.-Shost, Thymus fallax Fisch. & Mey. and Thymus pubescens Boiss. & Kotschy ex Celak var. pubescens resulted in the identification of 26, 35 and 53 constituents, respectively. The major components in the essential oil of T. migricus were found to be α-terpineol (30.6%), thymol (20.7%) and α-terpinyl acetate (14...

background: thymus is a widely used medicinal plant in food and pharmaceutical industries. among different species of thymus, t. vulgaris is used more than other species in therapeutic dosage forms. objective: this study was conducted to differentiate various thymus species by tlc fingerprint. methods: in order to identify and differentiate various species of thymus, tlc fingerprints of essenti...

during the last two decades, various medicinal plants have been studied for their possible antimicrobial activity to discover new antimicrobial agents capable of resolving problems such as the development of drug resistance in pathogenic microorganisms as well as the side effects of some present antibiotics. in this study, the antibacterial activity of methanolic extract of t. pubescens (rich i...

The compound of essential oil of thyme which was morphologically similar to Thymus pubescens (Lamiaceae) grown at Azarbijan region, was different from pervious reporters. This secondary metabolite extracted from this plant is citronellol which is the main essential oil in the rosa family. These findings showed clear chemical polymorphism with the Th. pubescens taxon that might lead us to new sp...
