“…The MIC and MCC values indicate that the volatile oil of Salvia officinalis was more efficient on all of the microorganisms. This result demonstrated that the antimicrobial action of S. officinalis can be attributed to the presence of different concentrations of thujone, 1,8-cineole, camphor and other minor components Sur et al, 1991). Salvia species have strong antimicrobial effective even in very low concentrations (Tepe et al, 2005, topçu & Goren, 2007, Martins et al, 2015 as our study.…”

In the present study, the volatile compounds of essential oil of Foeniculum vulgare (fennel), Salvia officinalis (sage), Vitis vinifera (grape), Lavandula angustifolia (lavender) were analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) using the Nist and Willey libraries. It was determined that the main components of Foeniculum sp. were anethole (41.11%), carvacrol (9.18%). whereas main components of Salvia sp were 1.8 cineole (34.09%), caryophyllene (10.95%), camphor (9.44%), α-pinene (8.42%). Vitis sp. contained linoleic acid (36.98%), 2,4-decadienal (30.79%). Finally, volatile component of Lavandula sp. was linalool (33.57%), linalyl acetate (30.74%). Photoxic antibacterial activity of volatile oil of those plants against Escherichia coli (ATCC 25293), Klebsiella pneumoniae (10031), Salmonella thyphimurium, Bacillus subtilis (ATCC 6633), Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25925), Enterococcus feacalis (ATCC 29212) were examined by using disc diffusion method. We demonstrated that volatile oil effectively can be activated by a standard LED light. In vitro, significant phototoxicity was demonstrated by volatile oil of Foeniculum sp. and Vitis sp. (P < 0.05), while minor phototoxicity was induced by Lavandula sp. Therefore, volatile oil of plant can be considered as a potential photosensitizer in the photochemical therapy.

“…Also the antimicrobial effects of borneol were also reported by Vardar-Unlu et al (2003). 1,8-cineole and camphor are well-known chemicals that possess antifungal as well as antibacterial activities (Jalsenjak et al, 1987;Sur et al, 1991;Tzakou et al, 2001). The essential oil extracted from plants collected at 100 m was used in this study as it had more total component than that of 500 m. Moreover, it had higher percentage of 1,8-cineol and borneol.…”

The essential oils of Salvia officinalis L. collected at two different altitudes in Syrian coastline were analyzed by gas chromatography. Plant's development stage and the ecological factors had impact on the qualitative composition of S. officinalis essential oil. Although, the major components of the essential oils extracted from plants grown at both altitudes were 1,8-cineol, camphor, borneol, α-pinene, β-pinene, camphene, β-myrcene and caryophyllene, their percentage changed according to the altitude. S. officinalis essential oil was for its antibacterial activities by using Gram-positive and negative bacteria. Both Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus group D were efficiently inhibited after 10 min of contact at oil concentration of 20 µl/ml. The inhibitory effect of the essential oil on Candida albicans was total and definitive within a minimum of contact time and oil concentration. But the essential oil showed a temporary bacteriostatic effect on Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi, as well as Pseudomonas aeruoginosa. In comparison with most known antibiotics, the efficiency of S. officinalis essential oil was much better, especially against bacteria resistant to antibiotic.

“…The Lamiaceae family for example, contains value. Some of these species have been recommended because of their strong affinity for digestive and metabolic processes as well as, respiration and blood formation (Sur et al, 1991;Sivropoulou et al, 1997;Dorman and Deans, 2000;Seaman, 2005;Kamatou et al, 2008;Dyubeni and Buwa, 2012). In literature, the Thymus vulgaris L, Ocimum sanctum, Salvia serotina, Acinos arvensis, Rosmarinus officinalis are few examples of species belonging to these families that have often been used to treat ailments associated with the weakness of vital centers such as diabetes, digestive problems, respiratory problems, and anaemia (Sivropoulou et al, 1997;Chalchat et al, 1998;Auge et al, 2003;Kamatou et al, 2008).…”
