The focus of the present study was on the influence of season on yield, chemical composition, antioxidant and antifungal activities of Omani basil ( Ocimum basilicum) oil. The present study involved only one of the eight Omani basil varieties. The hydro-distilled essential oil yields were computed to be 0.1%, 0.3% and 0.1% in the winter, spring and summer seasons, respectively. The major components identified were L- linalool (26.5 - 56.3%), geraniol (12.1 - 16.5%), 1,8-cineole (2.5 - 15.1%), ρ-allylanisole (0.2 - 13.8%) and DL-limonene (0.2 -10.4%). A noteworthy extra component was β- farnesene, which was exclusively detected in the oil extracted during winter and spring at 6.3% and 5.8%, respectively. The essential oil composition over the different seasons was quite idiosyncratic, in which the principal components of one season were either trivial or totally absent in another. The essential oil extracted in spring exhibited the highest antioxidant activity (except DPPH scavenging ability) in comparison with the oils from other seasons. The basil oil was tested against pathogenic fungi viz. Aspergillus niger, A. fumigatus, Penicillium italicum and Rhizopus stolonifer using a disc diffusion method, and by determination of minimum inhibitory concentration. Surprisingly high antifungal values were found highlighting the potential of Omani basil as a preservative in the food and medical industries.

Abstract The chemical variations of the essential oil from the aerial parts of Laurus nobilis L. (Lauraceae) have been studied. Plant material has been harvested at each phenological status (vegetative, before anthesis, full flowering and seed-bearing). The oils were obtained by hydrodistillation of the air-dried samples. Analysis by GC and GC-MS of the essential oils has allowed to identify 39 compounds. The main compounds were 1,8-cineole, trans-sabinene hydrate, α-terpinyl acetate, methyl eugenol, sabinene, eugenol and α-pinene.

Heracleum platytaenium Boiss. (Öğrekotu) is a plant depend on the Apiaceae family, with intense aromatic content and known for its use in traditional medicine. This plant, which is one of the endemic plants of Turkey, is perennial and monocarpic. In this study, the essential oil of the Heracleum platytaenium Boiss., which grows naturally in the northern parts of Bolu province, was obtained by the hidro-distillation method in the Clevenger device and the essential oil components were investigated in the GC-MS device. As a result of the study, the essential oil ratio was determined as 1.4%. Octyl hexanoate (8.76%), 5-Octen-1-ol (7.04%), n-Octyl Caprylate (5.42%), and Beta-Eudesmol (5.01%) were determined as the main components.  In this study, a total of 36 components (81.69%) were detected in the GC-MS device.
