The oil composition of Stachys glutinosa L. from two different areas of Sardinia was analyzed by GC/MS. The oil from Gallura plants was characterized by the four main constituents: terpinen-4-ol (12.7%), α-terpinyl acetate (10.6%), trans-cadina-1(6),4- diene (8.5%), and α-terpineol (8.4%) whilst α-cedrene (19.2%), α-terpineol (18.5%), terpinen-4-ol (12.6%), and α-terpinyl acetate (8.6%) were the main compounds in the oil from Ulassai plants. The oils showed good bacteriostatic activities against Vibrio cholerae (MIC 0.6%), all the Candida tested (1.25%) and Rodotorula rubra (2.5%). There were also bactericidal activities against Candida glabrata (1.25 %) and Rodotorula rubra (2.5%).

Abstract
The oil composition of Stachys glutinosa L. from two different areas of Sardinia was analyzed by GC/MS. The oil from Gallura plants was characterized by the four main constituents: terpinen-4-ol (12.7%), α-terpinyl acetate (10.6%), trans-cadina-1(6),4- diene (8.5%), and α-terpineol (8.4%) whilst α-cedrene (19.2%), α-terpineol (18.5%), terpinen-4-ol (12.6%), and α-terpinyl acetate (8.6%) were the main compounds in the oil from Ulassai plants. The oils showed good bacteriostatic activities against Vibrio cholerae (MIC 0.6%), all the Candida tested (1.25%) and Rodotorula rubra (2.5%). There were also bactericidal activities against Candida glabrata (1.25 %) and Rodotorula rubra (2.5%).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
