Description
Summary:The essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation (HD), steam distillation (SD) and solvent free microwave extraction (SFME) from the stems and flowers of (Boiss.) Podl., which is endemic to Iran, were analyzed by combination of GC and GC/MS. Camphor (26.91 %, 27.23% and 25.52%), borneol (12.61%,11.48% and 7.62%) and 1,8-cineole (7.93%, 13.23% and 11.26%) were the main constituents of the HD,SD and SFME oils of respectively. All three oils were rich in regard to monoterpenes and small percentage of sesquiterpenes and non terpenoid compounds. Antibacterial activity of the essential oil of the plant was determined against six Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria. The results showed that this oil was active against all of the tested bacteria.
