Abstract
The chemical composition of the essential oils from five Salvia species from Turkey was determined by GC. The species were S. candidissima, S. cryptantha, S. fruticosa, S. officinalis and S. tomentosa. 24, 22, 20, 19, and 22 components were identified, respectively, the major ones being β-pinene (candidissima), borneol (cryptantha), 1,8-cineole (fruticosa), camphor (officinalis) and β-pinene (tomentosa). α-Pinene in candidissima, camphor in cryptantha, α-thujone in officinalis and 1,8-cineole in tomentosa were the other important components.Keywords
