The chemical composition and biological activities of the essential oils obtained from Serbian species (, ) were analysed. The essential oil was obtained by merging several samples (same plant species, different localities) and the chemical composition was compared with pre-merging results. In the merged sample four components were not found in any pre-merging sample and one of those is present in the highest percentage (capillin 35.

The major class of compounds was monoterpene hydrocarbons with α-terpinolene, sabinene and β-pinene (EO), and sabinene, α-terpinolene and β-pinene (HS) as the dominant volatiles.

The results showed that headspace volatiles obtained from the aerial parts and roots were similar regarding the number of identified compounds and main components. However, essential oils obtained from different plant organs showed significant differences in chemical composition.
