摘要
The composition of the essential oils obtained from the leaves and the flowers of Achillea ligustica (Asteraceae) growing in Sicily has been studied. The main constituents of the leaves were 4-terpineol (19.3%), carvone (8.9%), gamma-terpinene (7.2%) and beta-phellandrene (6.8%). 4-terpineol (12.0%), carvone (10.0%), and beta-phellandrene (5.4%), along with linalool (20.4%) and cedrol (4.3%) were detected in the flower's oil. Furthermore, the antimicrobial activity of the essential oils and of some of the main constituents were assayed on bacteria and fungi. (c) Versita Warsaw and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
