Essential oil yield and compositions of sage (Salvia Officinalis L.) cultivated in different province of Turkey

Abstract

Salvia officinalis is known as sage or garden sage. Salv a comes from the Lat n salveo and salvaro, terms that mean "save" and "cure." (Anonymus, 2018). Sage is a perennial plant rich in volatile oil belonging to Lamiaceae family. The genus Salvia, belonging to Lamiaceae,are represented by over 900 species worldwide. Anatolia is a major centre for Salvia in Asia, 47 of its 90 species endemic to Turkey (Kan et al, 2007). The sage is a herbaceous or bushy plant that can be grow up to 60-100 cm, and the flowers could differ from the blue to white and it has green leaves with a burning smell. It is fibrous rooted and drought resistant. The branching feature of the plant is quite large. Herbs of sage are used in the preflowering period ( Felice Senatore et al.,2006). Salvia genus comprises herbaceous, suffructicous or shrubby perennials, rarely biennial or annual, often strongly aromatic plants. Approximately 900 species have been recorded widespread throughout the world. The plant grows mainly in mild and hot climates. Some members of this genus are of economic importance, since they have been used in folk medicine all around the world for their antibacterial, antitumor, antidiabetic antituberculosus, activities and as a flavoring agent in perfumery and cosmetics (Werker et al, 1985; Tzakau et al, 2001). There are some significant activities and properties of Salvia essential oils, including antimicrobial, antioxidant, anticholinesterase, improvement of cognitive performance and mood, reducing work-related stress, antimutagenic, anticancer, antiinflammatory, choleretic activities. The present rev ew reported the ma n and s gn ficant pharmacolog cal act v t es of salv a essent al o ls. (Fu et al, 2013).This study was carried out to determine essential oil yields and volatile oil components in sage herba grown in Konya, Karaman and Elazığ provinces. Material And MethodPlant Material: Sage seeds used in this study were obtained from Selcuk University Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Medicinal Plants. The Seedl ngs of Salv a offic nal s have been cult vated n three d fferent cult vated tr als. Samples of S. offic nal s were harvested from the cultvated tr al from Konya, Karaman and Elazığ provinces in Turkey. Plant samples to be used in the analysis of essential oil were harvested in pre-flowering period.Essential oil yield (%): "Water Distillation Method" was used to obtain the essential oil yield of sage. According to this method, 100 g dry herb samples were subjected to water distillation for 3 hours and a volatile oil was obtained. Volumetric (ml / 100 g) volatile oil yield was determined by Clevenger type essential oil equipment.

Effect of Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) and Sage (Salvia officinalis) Essential Oils on Disease Resistance against Aeromonas sobria in Goldfish (Carassius auratus)

“…The 4 major component were eucalyptol (1,8-cineole) (27.08%), thujone (20.52%), camphor (16.99%), beta-pinene (4.07%). Other authors have reported sage essential oil with a comparable composition although there are some differences regarding the quantity of the individual compounds (Kırıcı et al, 1996;Delamare et al, 2007;Said-Al Ahl et al, 2015;Craft et al, 2017;Khedler et al, 2017;Çelik et al, 2018;Karik et al, 2018). The rosemary essential oil isolated was mainly composed of five compounds: eucalyptol (26.36%), camphor (29.17%), borneol (7.34%), alpha pinene (6.72%) camphene (4.95%) in this study.…”
