background & aim: salvia hydrangea is one of the medicinal plants belonging to lamiaceae family. medicinal plants can be marketed as fresh or dried products; however aromatic plants are often dried before extraction to reduce moisture content. the aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of different drying methods on qualitative and quantitative changes in essential oil of sage. experiment...

The composition of the volatile oils obtained from the aerial parts of Artemisia deserti Krasch. and A. oliveriana J. Gayex DC. was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. While the oil of A. deserti contained camphor (45.5%), 1,8-cineole (16.7%), piperitone (8.6%), ?-pinene (5.7%) and isoborneol (3.2%), the oil of A. oliveriana contained ?-thujone (65.4%), camphor (11.5%), 1,8-cineole (9.2%) and pinocavone ...
