AB  - This study aimed to investigate the chemical composition of steam distillate essential oil
and corresponding hydrolate obtained from S. officinalis grown in Serbia, as well as the influence
of weather conditions (temperature and precipitations) on their chemical profiles. Furthermore,
their antimicrobial activity was investigated in vitro. The main compounds in essential oil were cisthujone, followed by camphor, trans-thujone, and 1,8-cineole, while hydrolate was slightly different
from the essential oil, with camphor, cis-thujone, and 1,8-cineole as the main compounds. Among
the eight respiratory-associated microorganisms, Klebsiella oxytoca was the most sensitive to the
tested EOs (minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC)/minimal bactericidal/fungicidal concentration
(MBC/MFC) were 14.20 and 28.4 µL mL−1
, respectively). MIC and MBC values of other tested
bacteria ranged between 28.40 and 227.25 µL mL−1 while for Candida albicans MIC/MFC ranged
from 28.40/56.81 to 56.81–113.63 µL mL−1
. Antibiotic susceptibility patterns for the analyzed eight
respiratory-associated microorganisms showed an intermediate level of resistance to commonly used
antibiotics such as ampicillin, levofloxacin, and ciprofloxacin. As a preliminary approach to the
antimicrobial profiling of the tested EO, the obtained results revealed that the tested samples possess
remarkable antibacterial activities and could be used to develop pharmaceutical formulations as an
alternative to conventional antibiotic therapy

AB  - H. italicum essential oil (EO) is one of the most popular ingredients utilized by the cosmetic industry, and it is also used as natural antioxidant and as a value-added ingredient in food products. The chemical composition of the EO H. italicum cultivated in Serbia was analyzed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. The quantitative structure–retention relationship was used to predict the retention indices of the EO constituents acquired by GC-MS data, applying five molecular descriptors selected by factor analysis and a genetic algorithm. Also, antimicrobial activity, and biological activity by four common antioxidant tests (DPPH and ABTS assays, reducing power, and β-carotene bleaching test), and in vitro antihyperglycemic and anti-inflammatory capacities were evaluated. A total of 70 EO constituents were detected, of which 17 (8.5%) could not be identified. The H. italicum EO in this study belonged to γ-curcumene chemotype. The coefficients of determination reached the value of 0.964, demonstrating that this model could be used for prediction purposes. All applied tests showed that H. italicum EO possesses good biological activity and an interesting chemical composition. Therefore, the EO of H. italicum grown in Serbia has a potential to be used in food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical products.

AB  - Species of the Lamiaceae family have enjoyed a rich tradition of use for flavoring, food preservation, and medicinal purposes, due to their curative and preventive properties. Cultivated winter savory (Satureja montana L.), sage (Salvia officinalis L.) and hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis L.) are produced for seed, herb, and essential oil. Dominant compounds in S. montana essential oil were carvacrol (43.2%) and thymol (28.4%), while CIS-thujone (27.1%) and camphor (19.3%), followed by trans-thujone and 1,8-cineole were the major compounds in S. officinalis essential oil. As for H. officinalis essential oil, CIS-and trans-pinocamphone (41.1% and 20.5%, respectively) were the most abundant compounds, followed by b-pinene. S. montana essential oil exhibit the highest antimicrobial properties, as well as antioxidant capacity, compared to other tested essential oils. Furthermore, H. officinalis essential oils showed higher antioxidant activity than that of S. officinalis. The aim of this investigation was to determine the composition and bioactivity of essential oils of mentioned varieties. Presented results show that S. montana essential oil could be proposed as a valuable source of natural preservatives.
