Wild Sicilian Rosemary: Phytochemical and Morphological Screening and Antioxidant Activity Evaluation of Extracts and Essential Oils
2015
To identify the best biotypes, an extensive survey of Sicilian wild rosemary was carried out by collecting 57 samples from various sites, followed by taxonomic characterization from an agronomic perspective. All the biotypes collected were classified as Rosmarinus officinalis L. A cluster analysis based on the morphological characteristics of the plants allowed the division of the biotypes into seven main groups, although the characteristics examined were found to be highly similar and not area-dependent. Moreover, all samples were analyzed for their phytochemical content, applying an extraction protocol to obtain the nonvolatile components and hydrodistillation to collect the essential oil…
Exploring the chemical diversity of essential oils in Armenian markets: a comprehensive analysis of composition profiles
2023
Due to its location at the convergence of multiple biogeographical regions, Armenia experiences significant variations in climate and soil conditions, resulting in a diverse range of plant chemotypes. However, there has been a lack of recent reports on the biological activity of plants found in Armenia's flora. There are few with well-described essential oil profiles, despite the vast biodiversity of Armenian flora. This study aimed to analyse the chemical composition of essential oils used by the population and found in the Armenian market. Unfortunately, only essential oils of foreign origin can be found, like Russia. Three essential oils of Lavandula angustifolia, Abies sibirica, and Ros…
