“…GC/MS is a very powerful technique used for the analysis of volatile components, since it provides qualitative and quantitative data for complex mixtures, such as those usually present in natural products [6]. Some relative quantitations of L. angustifolia and L. latifolia compositions have been reported [2,4,[7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. None of them has studied the specific conditions of the Spanish Mediterranean coast, particularly of the Region of Murcia, where the biggest aromatic plant diversity among all regions of Spain is found.…”

Compositions of true lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) and spike lavender (Lavandula latifolia) essential oils, cultivated and extracted in the Southeast of Spain, were determined by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry detection, obtaining both relative (peak area) and absolute (using standard curves) concentrations. Linalool (37-54 %), linalyl acetate (21-36 %) and (E)-β-caryophyllene (1-3 %) were the most abundant components for L. angustifolia. Linalool (35-51 %), eucalyptol (26-32 %), camphor (10-18 %), α-pinene (1-2 %), α-terpineol (1-2 %) and α-bisabolene (1-2 %) were the most abundant components for L. latifolia. The characterization was completed with enantioselective gas chromatography, in which the determined main molecules were (-)-linalool, (-)-linalyl acetate and (+)-camphor. (S)-(-)-camphene, (R)-(+)-limonene, (1R, 9S)-(-)-(E)-β-caryophyllene and (1R, 4R, 6R, 10S)-(-)-caryophyllene oxide were found in this study as the predominant enantiomers in Spanish L. angustifolia. The characterised essential oils were tested for their antioxidant activity against free radicals ABTS, DPPH, ORAC, chelating, and reducing power. Inhibitory activity on lipoxygenase was observed indicating a possible anti-inflammatory activity, mainly due to linalool, camphor, p-cymene and limonene. These results can be the starting point for a future study of the potential use of L. angustifolia and L. latifolia essential oils as natural cosmetic and natural pharmaceutical ingredients for several skin diseases.

“…The main components of the essential oils from L. angustifolia are, among others, linalool, linalool acetate, geraniol, and borneol (Cong et al 2008, Prasad et al 2015. The composition of an essential oil depends mainly on the plant genotype, yet its composition may differ under the influence of developmental and environmental factors, e.g.…”

In the study, micropropagation of three varieties of Lavandula angustifolia was developed, and the appearance of trichomes, antioxidant activity of extracts and antimicrobial activity of essential oils isolated from plants growing in field conditions and in vitro cultures were compared. The study evaluated the number of shoots, and the height and weight of the plants grown on media with additions of BAP, KIN and 2iP. The greatest height was attained by the lavenders growing on MS medium with the addition of 1 mg dm -3 2iP -'Ellagance Purple'. The greatest number of shoots was developed by the 'Ellagance Purple' and 'Munstead' plants growing on the medium with 2 mg dm -3 BAP. The highest weight was attained by the plants growing on the medium with the highest concentration of BAP -3 and 5 mg dm . Moreover, the present study determined the influence of media with the addition of different concentrations of IBA and media with a variable mineral composition (½, ¼, and complete composition of MS medium) and with the addition of IBA or NAA for rooting. The majority of the media used had a positive influence on the development of the root system. The longest root system was observed in 'Ellagance Purple' growing on the medium composed of ¼ MS with 0.2 mg dm -3 NAA. All the examined oils exhibited activity towards S. aureus, S. epidermidis, P. aeruginosa, E. coli and C. albicans. The majority of the essential oils isolated from the plants propagated in vitro exhibited stronger antimicrobial activity than the field-grown plants. The plants propagated under in vitro conditions demonstrated considerably higher antioxidant activity as compared with the field-grown plants, which was determined using the DPPH, FRAP and ABTS assay.

“…The major components in the leaf and flower volatiles were camphor (12.9%), viridiflorol (10.5%), -terpinyl acetate (7.5%), valerenal (7.2%), -gurjunene (5.6%), and spathulenol (5.5%). Compared to other Lavandula species (Paul et al, 2004;Chorgrani et al, 2010;Porto et al, 2009;Pallado et al, 1997;An et al, 2001;Cong et al, 2008;Shellie et al, 2002;Da Porto and Decorti, 2010) the percentages for these compounds are high with the exception of camphor. Qualitative studies of lavender have also shown variable composition of the major components: linalool (35-37%), linalyl acetate (21-34%), 1,8-cineole (4-11%) and camphor (5-12%) (Da Porto and Decorti, 2010).…”

Guillen et al (1996) analyzed the components of the oil of the aerial parts of L. latifolia cultivated in North eastern Spain and found 57 compounds of which linalool (36.9%), 1,8-cineole (31.3%), and camphor (13.6%) were major components.…”

ABSTRACT:The leaves and flowers of Lavandula dhofarensis were collected from the Dhofar region of Oman and hydro-distilled to give low boiling volatiles, which did not condense at 10 o C. The dichloromethane extract of the hydrosol was analyzed by GC/FID and GC/MS. Sixty four compounds were identified in the volatiles of the leaves, accounting for 78.7% of the total. The major components were caryophyllene oxide (8.0%), germacrene (7.9%), spathulenol (7.8%), and -caryophyllene (6.6%). Eighty six compounds were also identified in the volatiles of the leaves plus flowers, comprising 94.5% of the total. The major compounds were camphor (12.9%), viridiflorol (10.5%), -terpinyl acetate (7.5%), valerenal (7.2%), -gurjunene (5.6%), and spathulenol (5.5%).Compounds such as linalool, linalyl acetate, 1,8-cineole, and -ocimene, which are usually found as the major components of lavender oils, were either absent or detected at low levels (<0.1%) in the hydrosol of L. dhofarensis. This investigation showed that the fragrance essence of L. dhofarensis is different from the other Lavandula species. L. dhofarensisis is regionally endemic to wetter areas of Oman.
