Full TextAbstract
The chemical compositions of the essential oil of Nepeta glomerulosa Boiss aerial parts, grown in Iran were determined by GC-MS. Fifty-two compounds (97.2 %) were determined. The major compounds were geranyl acetate ( 17.0 %), limonene (12.0 %), eucalyptol (5.8 %), (bornyl acetate (5.3 %), citronellal (4.9 %), spathulanol (4.2 %), sabinene (3.9 %), β-ocimene (3.9), β-sesquiphellandrene (2.8 %),neryl acetate ( 2.5 %), α-humulene (2.4 %), α-pinene (2.3 %), humulene oxide (2.2 %), norsolanadione ( 2.1 %) and terpinen-4-ol (2.0 %). The yield of the oil was 1.1(v/w) %. The essential oil showed antibacterial activity for Staphylococcus aureus.
