This study was conducted simultaneously in different locations in Çanakkale, Balıkesir and Kütahya in order to determine the effect of location on the volatile oil components, volatile oil rate and volatile oil quality of Abyssinian sage, Musk sage and Medical sage (Salvia aethiopis L., Salvia sclarea L. and Salvia officinalis L. (hybrid)) plants from the 2015 growing season. Field experiments were carried out in 3 replicates according to the randomized block design. These plants’ volatile oils were obtained by the hydrodistillation method (GC-MS/FID) and the volatile oil rates in three different locations were measured as 0.53%, 0.21%, 0.20%, respectively. The basic components of the volatile oil were determined as follows: β-caryophyllene 36.22%, 30.46%, 35.96%, α-copaene 15.06%, 16.46%, 16.58%, germacrene-D 13.23%, 20.01%, 15.20%, β-cubebene 5.62%, 7.04%, 6.93%, α–humulene 8.68%, 7.40%, 8.54%, caryophylleneoxide 7.40%, 1.82%, 3.53%. No volatile oil was acquired from Salvia sclarea L. except for the Çanakkale location which was only 0.02% and the main components in this volatile oil were measured as germacrene-D 20.78%, and phytol 17.81%. The best volatile oil contents from Abyssinian sage and Musk sage were obtained from the Çanakkale location with 0.53% and 0.02%, respectively. The rates of volatile oils from Medical sage (Salvia officinalis L. (hybrid)) were 1.00%, 1.40% and 0.96%, respectively, in the three locations. The main components in this volatile oil were measured as α-thujone 46,00%, 44.53%, 35.78%, β-thujone 5.05%, 6.31%, 8.61%, camphor 10.73%, 19.15%, 18.68%, 1.8-cineole 8.99%, 7.23%, 5.06%, viridiflorol 1.85%, 2.28%, 4.23%. The highest volatile oil rate in Medical sage was reached at the Balıkesir location at a rate of 1.40%. As a result of this study it was found that volatile oil components are comparatively richer in terpenes and the amount of volatile oil differs according to ecological factors.

The present study was carried out to determine, for the first time, the chemical composition and antibacterial activity of essential oils derived from the aerial parts of three aromatic plants Thymus algeriensis Boiss & Reut, Rosmarinus officinalis L., and Salvia officinalis L. growing under semiarid conditions. The essential oils were chemically analyzed and identified by gas chromatography (GC) and GC/ mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and their antimicrobial activity was individually evaluated against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa using both agar disk diffusion and agar dilution methods. The major constituents of Thymus algeriensis essential oil were identified as camphor (13.62%), 1,8-cineol (6.00%), borneol (5.74%), viridiflorol (4.00%), and linalool (3.93%). For Rosmarinus officinalis essential oil, 48 compounds were characterized, of which the main constituents were camphor (17.09%), Z-β-ocimene (10.88%), isoborneol (9.68%), α-bisabolol (7.89%), and borneol (5.11%). While, Salvia officinalis essential oil was characterized by β-thujone (16.44%), followed by viridiflorol (10.93%), camphor (8.99%), 1,8-cineol (8.11%), trans-caryophyllene (5.85%), and α-humulene (4.69%) as the major components. Notably, results from antibacterial screening indicated that Thymus algeriensis and Salvia officinalis essential oils exhibited a strong inhibitory effect against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus compared to Rosmarinus officinalis essential oil. Further, less activity was recorded against Pseudomonas aeruginosa for the three tested essential oils.

The chemical profile and allelopathic effect of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) produced by a dominant shrub Serphidium kaschgaricum (Krasch.) Poljak. growing in northwestern China was investigated for the first time. Serphidium kaschgaricu was found to release volatile compounds into the surroundings to affect other plants’ growth, with its VOCs suppressing root elongation of Amaranthus retroflexus L. and Poa annua L. by 65.47% and 60.37% at 10 g/1.5 L treatment, respectively. Meanwhile, volatile oils produced by stems, leaves, flowers and flowering shoots exhibited phytotoxic activity against A. retroflexus and P. annua. At 0.5 mg/mL, stem, leaf and flower oils significantly reduced seedling growth of the receiver plants, and 1.5 mg/mL oils nearly completely prohibited seed germination of both species. GC/MS analysis revealed that among the total 37 identified compounds in the oils, 19 of them were common, with eucalyptol (43.00%, 36.66%, 19.52%, and 38.68% in stem, leaf, flower and flowering shoot oils, respectively) and camphor (21.55%, 24.91%, 21.64%, and 23.35%, respectively) consistently being the dominant constituents in all oils. Eucalyptol, camphor and their mixture exhibited much weaker phytotoxicity compared with the volatile oils, implying that less abundant compounds in the volatile oil might contribute significantly to the oils’ activity. Our results suggested that S. kaschgaricum was capable of synthesizing and releasing allelopathic volatile compounds into the surroundings to affect neighboring plants’ growth, which might improve its competitiveness thus facilitate the establishment of dominance.

Rosmarinus officinalis, which belongs to the Lamiaceaefamily, is a species of medicinal flora with therapeutic properties. In order to exploit the benefits of these properties, a mouthwash formulation was developed, with careful selection of raw materials to meet pharmacotechnical requirements. Extracts of the plant were incorporated into a mouthwash, which was shown to have inhibitory action in vitro against the micro-organisms commonly found in periodontics. Controls for assessing the quality of the drugs were carried out, quantifying phenols and flavonoids as chemical markers. Mouthwash solutions were formulated containing 0.1, 5 and 10% ethanol extract of R. officinalis; and 0.05, 5 and 10% of the hexane fraction of R. officinalis. In order to evaluate synergism, ethanol extract and hexane fraction were also added to formulations containing 0.05% sodium fluoride and 0.12% chlorhexidine digluconate. These formulations were assessed for inhibitory effect against the specific microorganisms involved in the process of bacterial plaque formation, S. mutans(ATCC25175) and C. albicans(ATCC 10231), frequently found in cases of oral infections. The agar diffusion method was used to evaluate the inhibitory activity of extracts and formulations. All mouthwash solutions displayed inhibitory activity having higher sensitivity to S. mutansfor the 5% ethanol extract+0.05% sodium fluoride, and greater sensitivity to C. albicansfor the 10% hexane fraction. Results were characterized by the appearance of a growth inhibition halo, justifying the utilization and association of extracts of R. officinalis.

The natural drying of Rosmarinus officinalis Linn. herbs severely affects its volatile oil quality and yields, which is reported here for the first time. The oils obtained through hydrodistillation from fresh, one, two, and three-weeks dried herbs were analyzed by gas chromatography–mass spectroscopy (GC–MS) and gas chromatography–flame ionization detector (GC-FID), and the yields were 198 ± 3.45, 168.7 ± 5.11, and 97.8 ± 1.27 mg, respectively, as compared to the internal referral standard of 327 ± 5.91 mg yield of the one-week dried herbs’ oil. Camphor, the major constituent, significantly depleted from 20.96% to 13.84%, while bornyl acetate yields increased from 1.42% to 12.46% (p values < 0.0001) in three-weeks drying, reflecting the redox processes undergoing within the oil during drying. Several constituents (25) were found in one-week dried herbs’ oil as compared to the fresh, two-, and three-weeks oils, which consisted of 23, 19, and 14 constituents, respectively, leading to the recommendation of the one-week drying of the herb for maximum oil yield. The DPPH (2, 2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl) reactivity was highest for the two- and three-weeks dried herb-based oils, followed by the one-week dried- and fresh-herb-based oils (p < 0.0001), again indicating major chemical changes during herbs’ dryings, affecting the free-radical scavenging capacity of these batches of oils obtained after different drying times.

Mint is one of the essential oil-producing plants. Essential oils of Mentha spicata L or spearmint are widely used as raw materials in the food, beverage and pharmaceutical preparations industries. The main components of spearmint are karvon, limonen, cineol, dihydrocarvol, myrcene, and 0.5% menthol. The components contained in spearmint have properties as herbal remedies. Plant cultivation greatly determined the results of standardized drug ingredients. Cultivation with the right planting system can affect the quality of simplicia. This research were a descriptive study to differentiate the quality of plants. This study aimed to determine differences in plant morphology, chromatogram profile and levels of spearmint essential oil between hydroponic and conventional planting systems. Observation of plant morphology includes the size, color of the stem and leaves. Essential oil content is calculated from refined oil by steam and water distillation method. Spearmint oil was analyzed on thin layer chromatography methode using the silica gel F254 as a stationary phase and hexane-ethyl acetate (8: 2) as a mobile phase, with spot visualization under UV254 and anisaldehyde-H2SO4 . The results showed that the morphology of Mentha spicata L with hydrophonic  planting systems had a bigger size in stem and leaves, but the leaves had more bright green than a conventional plant. The chromatogram profile did not show differences in the number of spots and Rf. Mentha spicata L with conventional planting systems had a sharper intensity of color on one of the volatile oil spot, and suggested  due to menthol. The levels volatile oil of Mentha spicata L hydroponic and conventional were determined as 0.0326% and 0.0323% . The Independent T-test analysis  showed that there were not a significant differences.

Čovjek nikada nije napustio korištenje samoniklog bilja u različite svrhe; kao hranu (za ljude i životinje), odjeću, obuću, lijekove, oruđe i oružje tj. za sve što mu je potrebno. Stoga, u cilju očuvanja tradicionalne nematerijalne baštine kao i biljne raznolikosti u ovom su Etnobotaničkom istraživanju, provedenom tijekom 2018. godine, prikupljena tradicionalna narodna znanja o primjeni jestivog i ljekovitog bilja na području općine Šestanovac (Dalmatinska Zagora). Ukupno je zabilježena upotreba 94 svojte, njihovi lokalni nazivi, te načini Korištenja bilja. Rezultati ovog istraživanja pokazuju da se najveći broj vrsta samoniklih biljaka najčešće koristi kao: sirove salate ili kuhano povrće (29), sirovo divlje voće (13), svakodnevni i/ili medicinski čajevi (33), začinske biljke (5), a 25 ih ima specifičnu medicinsku uporabu. Najveći broj vrsta pripada porodicama Lamiaceae (12), Rosaceae (11) i Asteraceae (10). Prema načinu upotrebe inventarizirane biljke su podijeljene na 4 skupine: hrana za ljude, ljekovito bilje, hrana za životinje i prirodni insekticidi. Vrste s najvećom frekvencijom Spominjanja su šparoga (Asparagus acutifolius L.), koromač (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) i kopriva (Urtica dioica L.), koji se kuhaju zasebno ili kao mješavina lisnatog samoniklog povrća „mišancija“, lovor (Laurus nobilis L.) i ružmarin (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) koji se koriste kao začin i medicinski čaj, kadulja (Salvia officinalis L.) i divlja ruža ili šipurina (Rosa canina L.) koje se uobičajeno koriste kao svakodnevni čaj. Najneobičnija upotreba na istraživanom području je za čuvarkuću (Sempervivum tectorum L.) koja uz široko poznatu upotrebu protiv uhobolje, pomaže kod upalih procesa nakon uboda komarca te bilu slavulju ili bjelušinu (Inula verbascifolia (Willd.) Hausskn.) koja se u nedostatku slame koristi kao stelja (podloga) životinjama u staji. Vrste sakupljene na području istraživanja su herbarizirane, digitalizirane te dostupne on-line u ZAGR Herbariju.
