“…Essential oils with their ingredients are applied in aromas and cosmetics, hygiene goods, medicine, horticulture, food custodians and supplements, and organic cures. D-Limonene, d-carvone, and geranyl acetate, for instance, are used in aromas, moisturizers, cosmetics, as fragrance enhancers in food, odors in-home cleaning chemicals, and as lubricating oils [65][66][67][68]. Further, essential oils are utilized in massaging as a combination with vegetable oil, in spas, and often in aromatherapy.…”

“…Is there a link between many medical components, organic compounds, and applications? As we investigated S. baicalensis and S. barbata , the two largest studied species in terms of nutrients, we determined the difference in chemical structure, pharmacological components, and therapeutic properties [ 66 ]. Scutellaria baicalensis is an herbaceous plant with a dense and meaty rhizome, and the dried root of Scutellaria baicalensis has an abundance of 4′‑deoxyflavones, which lead to Radix Scutellariae 's clarifying warmth and detoxing properties.…”

Scutellaria (Lamiaceae), which contains over 350 species, usually known as skullcaps, is found throughout Europe, the United States, and East Asia. In traditional Chinese medicine, several species are used to wipe out heat-evil and remove surface ills (TCM). The current study examines the ethnopharmacology, biological activity, and chemical substances associated with Scutellaria species. More than 295 chemicals, including flavonoids and diterpenes, have been identified. Scutellaria and its active principles have been shown in studies to have a wide range of pharmacological activities, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, antifeedant, phytotoxic, acaricidal toxicity, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antianalgesic activities. Currently, effective monomeric compounds or active components from Scutellaria have been evaluated for pharmacological action in vivo and in vitro. More data facilitates applications and exploitation of novel medication development.

“…There are several studies on the chemical composition of the essential oil of Hymenocrater spp. (Mirza et al 2001;Firouznia et al 2005;Barazandeh 2006;Akramian et al 2008;Akhlaghi et al 2009;Masoudi et al 2009;Firouznia et al 2009;Ahmadi et al 2010;Morteza-Semnani et al 2010;Taherpour et al 2011;Azimova & Glushenkova 2012;Masoudi et al 2012;Morteza-Semnani et al 2012;Sabet Teimouri et al 2012;Shahriari et al 2013). Chemically, essential oils are very complex natural mixtures which may contain components at quite different concentrations.…”

The chemical composition of the essential oils isolated from the aerial parts of Micromeria inodora (Desf.) Benth. collected in 24 Algerian localities was investigated from the first time using GC-FID, GC/MS and C-NMR. Altogether, 83 components which accounted for 94.7% of the total oil composition were identified. The main compounds were trans-sesquisabinene hydrate (1; 20.9%), α-terpinyl acetate (2; 19.8%), globulol (3; 4.9%), caryophyllene oxide (4; 4.3%), β-bisabolol (5; 2.9%) and trans-7-epi-sesquisabinene hydrate (6; 2.6%). Comparison with the literature highlighted the originality of the Algerian M. inodora oil and indicated that 1 might be used as taxonomical marker. The study of the chemical variability allowed the discrimination of two main clusters confirming that there is a relation between the essential-oil compositions and the soil nature of the harvest locations. Biological activity of M. inodora essential oil was assessed against fourteen species of microorganisms involved in nosocomial infections using paper disc diffusion and dilution agar assays. The in vitro study demonstrated a good activity against Gram-positive strains such as Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, and Enterococcus faecalis, and moderate activity against Candida albicans. These results might be useful for the future commercial valorization of M. inodora essential oil as a promising source of natural products with potential against various nosocomial community and toxinic infections.
