Abstract

© 2020, Badebio Biotechnololgy Ltd. All rights reserved.The aim of the present study was to characterize the essential oil composition of Thymus integer Griseb. (Lamiaceae), an endemic species in Cyprus. Microdistilled essential oil was analysed simultaneously both by Gas Chromatography-Flame Ionization Detector (GC-FID), and Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS). Overall, 49 components were determined and the major components were characterized as borneol (22%), p-cymene (10.1%),γ-terpinene (9.6%), α-pinene (8.7%), camphene (7.7%), and terpinen-4-ol (5.4%), respectively.
