The aim of this work was characterize the essentials oils (EOs) obtained from Santolina chamaecyparissus and Sideritis angustifolia determining (1) its chemical composition and (2) its effectiveness on the growth of some bacteria related to food spoilage, such as Listeria innocua, Serratia marcescens, Pseudomonas fragi, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Aeromonas hydrophila, Shewanella putrefaciens, Alcaligenes faecalis, Achromobacter denitrificans, Enterobacter amnigenus, Enterobacter gergoviae and Leuconostoc carnosum. The EOs were chemically analyzed and identified by gas chromatography and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, while the agar disc diffusion method was used to determine their antibacterial activities. The concentration effect was also determined. In S. chamaecyparissus, the major constituents were artemisia ketone (27.19%), dihydroaromadendrene (18.21%) and β‐phellandrene (7.49%), while in S. angustifolia EO, the major constituent is α‐pinene (12.71%). Another important compound was β‐phellandrene (11.97%). The agar disc diffusion method indicated that S. chamaecyparissus EO showed the highest antibacterial activity against the L. innocua and A. hydrophila, with inhibition zones of 12.70 and 16.50 mm, respectively. S. angustifolia EO showed the highest antibacterial activity against A. faecalis, S. marcescens and A. denitrificans. S. chamaecyparissus and S. angustifolia EOs can be used as antibacterial agents. Practical Applications The research on plant‐based natural bioactive compounds to control the foodborne and spoilage pathogens has attained special interest in the recent years. The use of essential oils of Santolina chamaecyparissus and Sideritis angustifolia as antibacterial agents will be suitable for applications on the food industry as natural preservatives or flavoring to control foodborne pathogens. Another important reason for their suitability is their natural origin, which consumers find comforting.

Artemisia absinthium, a plant distributed worldwide, has been reported for its numerous traditional uses, and its phytoconstituents have been investigated in several previous publications. The current study was designed to investigate the chemistry and quality; i.e., the antioxidant and cytotoxic activities, of A. absinthium volatile oil from plant species growing in the central area of Saudi Arabia compared to reported data for the plant growing in other parts of the world. Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and gas chromatography with flame ionization detector (GC-FID) spectroscopic analyses, in addition to in vitro antioxidant and cytotoxic assays, were conducted to fulfill the aims, and integrated the study’s conclusion. A total of 34 compounds representing 99.98% of the essential oil of the plant were identified; among them, cis-davanone was found at the highest concentration (52.51%) compared to the other constituents. In addition, α-gurjunene (7.15%), chamazulene (3.38%), camphene (3.27), γ-eudesmol (2.49%), pinocarvone (2.18%), and ocimenone (2.03%) were also identified as major constituents of the plant’s essential oil. The total percentage of davanones (53%) was the highest percentage found in the plant species growing elsewhere in the world. The antioxidant assays; i.e., the total antioxidant capacity (TAC), ferric-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl-scavenging activity (DPPH-SA), evidenced the potential in vitro antioxidant activity of the A. absinthium essential oil, with 35.59, 10.54, and 24.00 mg Trolox equivalent per gram of the essential oil. In addition, the metal-cheating activity (MCA) of the essential oil was measured at 29.87 mg ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) equivalent per gram of the essential oil. Moreover, a limited cytotoxic effect of the essential oil against all tested cell lines was observed, which might be considered as an indicator of the safety of A. absinthium as a worldwide edible plant. In conclusion, the study confirmed the variations in the A. absinthium essential oil constituents in response to the environmental conditions. The study also highlighted the potential health benefits of the plant’s essential oil as an antioxidant agent.

“…The Crimean ferruginous essential oil has antibacterial and antiprotozoal activity (Aboutabl et al, 2002;Fraga, 2012). The plant has antihypertensive, diuretic properties, promotes wound scarring, and helps with tumors (Aboutabl et al, 2002;Aboutabl et al, 2009;Navarro et al, 1997). The word "Sideritis" can be translated from Greek as "one who is iron or possesses iron."…”

This research presents the results of the morphological-anatomical study of grass organs above ground (leaves, stems, and flowers) from Sideritis taurica Steph. ex Willd. from the Lamiaceae family. The range of distribution of this species covers Eastern Europe, including Crimea, Caucasus. This plant is commonly found as an ornamental plant and grows in the southern and central regions of Russia. The purpose of this study is the anatomical and morphological study of the vegetative organs of S. taurica and the formation of diagnostic signs for reliable plant identification. The research material used was S. taurica herbicide samples collected in Crimea on the slopes of Mount Ay-Petri. Plant material is fixed in the glycerin : water system in a ratio of 1 : 1. Cross-section of stems and leaves is carried out using blades. The study was conducted with the morphological-anatomical method. The results obtained indicate the anatomical structure of the lamina, stem, and flower of the plant that has been studied. Anomocytic types of stomatal devices, unicellular and multicellular trichomes, located on the upper and lower sides of the leaf, as well as on the corolla stem and epidermis, have been discovered. The study carried out is part of the S. taurica complex pharmacognostic study.
