“…In other reports, thujane derivatives were reported as the main constituents. These compounds were obtained to be major components of the oils of A. absinthium 12 , A. khorassanica 16 , A. herba-alba 17 A. fragrans 18 and A. verlotiorum 19 . In previous researches, the essential oils of A. deserti areal parts were investigated.…”

The genus Artemisia (Compositae) contains small herbs or shrubs found in northern temperate regions. Thirty-four species of the genus Artemisia are found in Iran, of which two are endemic viz., A. melanolepis Boiss. and A. kermanensis Podl. 1. Several Artemisia species have medicinal importance and are useful in traditional medicine for the treatment of a variety of diseases and complaints. A. annua is a traditional medicinal herb of China. It is presently being cultivated on a commercial scale in China and Vietnam for its antimalaria sesquiterpene lactone artemisinin 2. In addition, A. annua is valued for its essential oil 3. Various medical applications have been ascribed to the essential oils of Artemisia 4-6 for example A. dracunculus has been used orally as an antiepileptic remedy in which its anticonvulsant potential has been assessed 5. Numerous reports have appeared in the literature on the essential oils and its antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of different species of Artemisia 7-21. In previous studies on A. deserti herb, some compounds such as germaceranolide, guanolide, monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes, were elucidated from extract of the aerial parts 22. The essential oil of A. deserti areal parts was also investigated 21,21. In the present study, for

“…The essential oil of the aerial parts of plants collected around Tabriz (north-west Iran), when analyzed by GC and GC/MS, showed 27 components. Monoterpenes predominated over sesquiterpenes, and camphor (46.0%), 1, 8-cineole (23.7%) and camphene (7.9%) were the major constituents among the identified compounds [7]. Previous investigation of Artemisia oils showed varying compositions.…”

“…Also, the isolation and identification of some sesquiterpenes from A. fragrans has been reported [6a-6e]. The chemical composition of the oil of A. fragrans aerial parts from Iran (Tabriz in northwestern Iran) has previously been investigated and 1,8-cineole (52.1%) and α-thujone (34.8%) were reported as the principal constituents [7] analyzed and 1, 8-cineole, capillene and eugenol chemotypes were characterized [8]. An oil of A. nilagirica, collected during the flowering stage, from Chamoli, Garhwal Himalaya had as its main constituents camphor (9.7%), β-eudesmol (8.0%), 1, 8-cineole (6.6%), borneol (5.3%), artemisia alcohol (3.4%), camphene (2.6%), α-gurjunene (1.9%), p-cymene (1.6%), terpinen-4-ol (1.2%) and α-pinene (1.2%) [9].…”

Hydrodistillation of leaves and roots of Artemisia fragrans Willd. (Asteraceae) yielded 0.9% and 0.1 %( v/w) essential oils, respectively. GC/MS analysis allowed identification of 19 components, which made up 91.1% of the total oil from the leaves, while only 9 compounds (93.8%) were identified in the roots. The main components of the leaf oil were chrysanthenon (23.8%), 1, 8-cineole (23.7%), β-caryophyllene (9.6%), p-cymene (7. 7%), filifolide-A (5.7%) and filifolone (5.7%). In the root oil, the main constituents were camphor (67.0%) and camphene (16.9%). Antibacterial activity was tested against Grampositive and Gram-negative bacteria using the agar diffusion method. Activity was observed against two Gram-positive and one Gram-negative bacteria.

“…The genus Artemisia has been investigated chemically and acetylenic compounds [19], flavonoids [20,21], coumarins [22] and terpenoids, especially sesquiterpene lactones [11,[23][24][25], have been reported. However, numerous reports have appeared in the literature on the essential oils of different species of Artemisia [26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44] and their antimicrobial effects [9,38], but, to the best our knowledge, no study has been reported previously on the oil of A. kulbadica.…”

The hydrodistilled volatile oil from the aerial parts of Artemisia kulbadica Boiss. & Buhse was investigated by a combination of GC and GC/MS. Twenty-seven compounds were identified, representing 92.9% of the total oil. Sabinene (25.1%), trans-thujone (18.7%) and γ-cadinene (16.0%) were the main components. The antimicrobial activity was determined against six bacterial strains and one fungal. The oil was active against all the tested strains.
