Chemical Composition and Anti-inflammatory Activity of Algerian Thymus vulgaris Essential Oil.

This work aims to elucidate the chemical composition of two essential oil (EO) samples obtained from the leaves of Thymus vulgaris L. (Lamiaceae) collected in two regions of Northwestern Algeria (Tlemcen and Mostaganem) and to assess their in vivo acute toxicity and anti-inflammatory activity. Sixty-six compounds could be identified by means of simultaneous GC-FID and GC-MS, accounting for 99.

Chemical Composition, Antioxidant, Antimicrobial and Insecticidal Activities of Essential Oil from a Moroccan Endemic Plant: Bubonium imbricatum.

The chemical composition, antioxidant, antimicrobial and insecticidal properties of essential oil obtained by hydro-distillation from Bubonium imbricatum Cav. have been investigated. The essential oil of aerial parts was analyzed by GC-FID and GC-MS.

Chemical Composition of Vietnamese Essential Oils of Cinnamomum rigidifolium, Dasymaschalon longiusculum, Fissistigma maclurei and Goniothalamus albiflorus.

Cinnamomum rigidifolium, Dasymaschalon longiusculum, Fissistigma maclurei and Goniothalamus albiflorus were collected from different landscapes in Vietnam and hydro distilled to produce essential oils with yields from 0.15 - 0.35%.

Fatty Acid Methyl Ester Composition of Some Turkish Apiaceae Seed Oils: New Sources for Petroselinic Acid.

The seed oils of twenty-six species of Apiaceae belonging to the genera Bunium, Cnidium, Ferula, Ferulago, Heracleum, Hippomarathrum, Malabaila, Myrrhoides, Olymposciadium, Pimpinella, Prangos, Szovitsia, Trigonasciadium, Trinia and Zosima, collected in Turkey, were investigated for their oil content, and amount of petroselinic acid (PA), as well as for the composition of their fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) by GC-MS. Seed oil content ranged from 7.1% in Szovitsia callicarpa to 29.
