AB  - The purpose of this study was to obtain additional value of hydrolates (HYs), by-products during essential oil distillation. Chemical compositions of angelica and hop hydrolates were determined and compared with the corresponding essential oils, and their biological potential tested. Steam distilled essential oils and hydrolates were analyzed by GC-MS, and their biological potential was tested for antioxidant (DPPH, ABTS and reduction power) and antimicrobial activities (against nine bacteria and fungi). Hydrolates were additionally tested for allelopathic activity (on corn and redroot pigweed). The investigated essential oils have totally different volatile profiles and aromas in comparison to hydrolates. The most dominant constituents in the angelica essential oil were limonene, β-phellandrene, α-pinene, α-phellandrene and δ-3-carene, while in the hydrolate it was trans-verbenol. In the hop essential oil the most dominant constituents were myrcene and α-humulene, while in the hydrolate isovaleric acid and linalool were dominant. Angelica essential oil showed higher antioxidant activity in comparison with hop, while hydrolates displayed significantly lower antioxidant activity. Low antimicrobial potential of both essential oils was observed in the case of Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida albicans. Antimicrobial activity was not detected in neither of the two hydrolates. In terms of allelopathic activity, hydrolates showed a dose-dependent decreasing activity on germination and seedling growth of corn and redroot pigweed. Angelica and hop essential oils are mainly used in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries because of their aroma. Hydrolates, as by-products, possess potential for application in agriculture as natural herbicides.

AB  - The purpose of this systematic overview is to establish the impact of inhalation and topical application of Rosa damascena essential oil in aromatherapy practice. A bibliometric analysis using the different scientific databases was conducted to examine scientific documents related to “rose aromatherapy” and “Rosa damascena aromatherapy”. Microsoft Excel and VOSviewer software were used to extract and visualize information. Founded on a review of 93 papers, the scent of rose essential oil has applications in aromatherapy for reducing anxiety, alleviating pain, improving sleep quality, as well as alleviating physiological symptoms during menopause and PMS. It aids in mitigating stress and reducing stress and reducing depression and fatigue, for relaxation and improving cognitive function, among other benefits. Ultimately, rose essential oil is safe and suitable for self-administration via inhalation or topical application, either alone or with other essential oils.

AB  - The development of active edible coatings with improved mechanical and barrier properties is a huge challenge. In this study, active edible coatings for sliced cheese have been developed using pullulan (Pull) in combination with two different biopolymers, chitosan (CS) and gelatine (Gel), and a combination of hydrolats as a source of active compounds with antimicrobial effects. In comparison to the monolayer coating, the bilayer coating system demonstrates improved barrier and mechanical properties. A preliminary assessment of the antimicrobial effect of lemongrass and curry plant hydrolats has revealed that both hydrolats exhibited antimicrobial activity against the targeted bacterium Staphylococcus aureus, albeit at different levels. The obtained results suggest that a mixture of 1.56% lemongrass and 12.5% curry plant hydrolats yielded a lower fractional inhibitory concentration (FIC) value. Bilayer coating systems (Pull/CS and Pull/Gel) with an incorporated mixture of hydrolats have demonstrated effectiveness in both cases: artificial contamination before application of the coating system and after application of the coating system. In both contamination scenarios, the coating systems consistently effectively limited bacterial proliferation, indicating the antimicrobial effect of the hydrolat mixture in the coating layers. In the case of artificial contamination before applying the coating system, both coatings demonstrated antimicrobial effectiveness, but the formulation with chitosan had a biocide effect, while the other, with gelatine, had only a bacteriostatic effect in a long-term setting. In the second case, both Pull/CS and Pull/Gel coatings demonstrated effectiveness in inhibiting bacterial growth regardless of the moment of contamination of the sample; the Pull/CS coating showed slightly better antimicrobial activity, achieving complete elimination of bacteria earlier compared with the Pull/Gel coating system.

AB  - Diversity is one of the principal components in species adaptation to ever-changing environment. In comparison to natural ecosystems, agriculture imposes additional challenges by constantly increasing the desired yield objectives for cultivated crops. The conservation of biological diversity is thus of essence to secure materials needed in plant breeding to produce crop varieties that are high yielding and adapted to emerging biotic and abiotic stresses. For traits not present in elite material, breeding programs can be designed to include crop wild relatives (CWR), local populations, or old varieties based on their availability for specific crop. This chapter presents case studies of sustainable PGR use in three breeding programs focusing on sunflower CWR, local populations of medicinal plants, and old varieties of small grains. As a genus rich in species that can be crossed with cultivated sunflower, Helianthus has become a model for studies of evolution, but also a popular source of traits for breeding. Disease tolerance traits introduced from the wild species allowed sunflower to still be an economically important crop, while raising interest for wild relatives. Medicinal plants have a long history in Serbian traditional medicine. They have also been investigated on scientific base, so that genetic resources were collected and evaluated for use. The results increased interest for their cultivation, as efforts were made to determine optimal agricultural practices and develop cultivars by breeding. The first Serbian collection of small grain varieties was established to advance existing agricultural production where crops and livestock were integrated in farming systems. With more than a century of organized work on collection, evaluation, and utilization of small grain resources, it is a good example of their sustainable use. The presented collections are a demonstration of returned investment in germplasm conservation and research. As much as the work on PGR may seem long term and with non-tangible return, the benefits are numerous. Increasing availability and knowledge on the germplasm will surely add to the sustainability of both breeding programs and plant genetic resources.

AB  - In ancient cultures, the female flowers (cones) of hops were used to preserve drinks with a low alcohol content to which they gave a specific aroma. Today, they are used in the brewing, cosmetic, pharmaceutical and food industry. According to scientific data, hops have a sedative effect, and have a significant anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic potential. The main biologically active ingredients that influence these activities are essential oils, bitter substances (alpha and beta-acids), phytoestrogens and flavonoids (flavonol glycosides, condensed tannins and prenylflavonoids). The essential oil of hops is golden yellow, with a fresh and slightly sharp herbal aroma. The commercial production of essential oils is carried out by distilling the plant mass with water or steam. Since water is the solvent in both processes, these extraction techniques are classified as green technology. After the extraction of essential oils from plant material, hydrolate and solid residues (exhausted plant material) and are obtained as by-products.

AB  - This article describes still insufficiently known technology of pot marigold cultivation with the compost produced from the organic waste of the processing of medicinal plants. For the first time the application was analyzed of different amounts of compost (control – without compost, 2, 10 and 30 kg/m2 ) on the morphological, productive and qualitative parameters of two pot marigold varieties (Domaći oranž and Plamen Plus). During the five-year period, the best results in both tested pot marigold varieties were achieved with the 30 kg/m2 compost application. The yield of dry flower was higher for the Domaći oranž pot marigold variety fertilized with 30 kg/m2 compost (1957.4 kg/ha) compared with the Plamen Plus variety (451.1 kg/ha). A significantly higher fresh flower yield of the Domaći oranž variety greatly influenced the increase in the quantities of examined quality parameters (total carotenoids, total phenolic, total flavonoids, and DPPH reduction), whose content was higher in the Plamen Plus variety. The artificial neural network model, was built applying the Broyden-FletcherGoldfarb-Shanno algorithm, exerted the adequate forecasting abilities for the productivity and quality of pot marigold flowers and the influence of compost material, produced from medicinal plants waste (R2 was 0.837 for the training period). This research demonstrates that it is possible to use organic waste obtained in the processing of medicinal plants, supporting the effectiveness of a circular economy model in the cultivation of pot marigold.

AB  - Traditionally used natural resources such as medicinal and aromatic plants are not fully valorized by modern industry which is followed by huge amount of agricultural waste, by-products and co-products. These streams could be a remarkable source of a wide range of bioactive compounds (BACs) (e.g. polyphenols, carotenoids, etc.), however, novel technological procedures for their isolation should be established. Therefore, valorization of under-utilized medicinal plants (medicinal plants from Serbia), food industry by-products (cakes obtained from oilseeds and herbal dust) and agricultural waste as raw material for recovery of BACs with high potential for utilization in pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food sector is in the great focus of investigation in last decade. The aim of this review was to highlight the recent research focused on the valorization of selected side streams and the posibilites of their utilization in isolation of various BACs. Special emphasis was put on challenges, limitations and opportunities associated with the extraction of BACs and further addition of novel extracts in the final products. Present data could be used as a guidelines for further utilization of novel raw materials in production of BACs based on their avalibility, sustainability, chemical profile and bioactive potential.

AB  - The main challenge in controlling the microbiological contamination of historical paper is finding an adequate method that includes the use of cost-effective, harmless, and non-toxic biocides whose effectiveness is maintained over time and without adverse effects on cultural heritage and human health. Therefore, this study demonstrated the possibility of using a non-invasive method of historical paper conservation based on plant essential oils (EOs) application. Evaluation of antimicrobial effects of different EOs (lemongrass, oregano, rosemary, peppermint, and eucalyptus) was conducted against Cladosporium cladosporoides, Aspergillus fumigatus, and Penicillium chrysogenum, which are commonly found on archive papers. Using a mixture of oregano, lemongrass and peppermint in ratio 1:1:1, the lower minimal inhibition concentration (0.78%) and better efficiency during a vapour test at the highest tested distance (5.5 cm) compared with individual EOs was proven. At the final step, this EOs mixture was used in the in situ conservation of historical paper samples obtained from the Archives of Vojvodina. According to the SEM imaging, the applied EOs mixture demonstrates complete efficiency in the inhibition of fungi colonization of archive papers, since fungal growth was not observed on samples, unlike the control samples.

abstract = "The main challenge in controlling the microbiological contamination of historical paper is finding an adequate method that includes the use of cost-effective, harmless, and non-toxic biocides whose effectiveness is maintained over time and without adverse effects on cultural heritage and human health. Therefore, this study demonstrated the possibility of using a non-invasive method of historical paper conservation based on plant essential oils (EOs) application. Evaluation of antimicrobial effects of different EOs (lemongrass, oregano, rosemary, peppermint, and eucalyptus) was conducted against Cladosporium cladosporoides, Aspergillus fumigatus, and Penicillium chrysogenum, which are commonly found on archive papers. Using a mixture of oregano, lemongrass and peppermint in ratio 1:1:1, the lower minimal inhibition concentration (0.78%) and better efficiency during a vapour test at the highest tested distance (5.5 cm) compared with individual EOs was proven. At the final step, this EOs mixture was used in the in situ conservation of historical paper samples obtained from the Archives of Vojvodina. According to the SEM imaging, the applied EOs mixture demonstrates complete efficiency in the inhibition of fungi colonization of archive papers, since fungal growth was not observed on samples, unlike the control samples.",

AB  - The genus Achillea has significant medical potential due to the presence of highly bioactive compounds in its chemical composition. To take advantage of plants’ biomedical potential, it is of great importance to use a proper extraction process. This study aimed to determine and compare the preliminary chemical composition of five different Achillea species extracted with two conventional (infusion and maceration) and two non-conventional (ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) and Subcritical water extraction (SWE)) techniques. The extracts were prepared using the previously described procedures for infusion, maceration, UAE and SWE extraction. For all extracts, the extraction yield (dry extract (DE)) was determined. The analyzed extracts were preliminarily chemically characterized spectrophotometrically in terms of total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC). The obtained results showed that non-conventional techniques delivered higher values of TPC and TFC than conventional. There is a statistically significant increase in DE and TPC content when applying SWE for all observed Achillea species. The highest DE value, 48.80 ± 1.76%, was observed for A. asplenifolia. The highest TPC values were observed after applying SWE: 93.63 ± 1.01 mg GAE/g DE for A. millefolium, and 90.12 ± 0.87 mg GAE/g DE for A. crithmifolia. The results for TFC revealed a statistically significant difference in values, with A. nobilis subsp. nelreichii as the sample with the highest content of TFC (11.11 ± 0.22 mg QE/g DE) when using UAE. Consequently, it could be concluded that SWE is a superior non-conventional extraction technique, and A. nobilis subsp. nerleichii presents as the most promising plant.

AB  - Inflammation is a natural protective response of the human body to a variety of hostile agents and noxious stimuli. Standard anti-inflammatory therapy includes drugs whose usage is associated with a number of side effects. Since ancient times, natural compounds have been used for the treatment of inflammation. Traditionally, the use of medicinal plants is considered safe, inexpensive, and widely acceptable. In Serbia, traditional medicine, based on the strong belief in the power of medicinal herbs, is the widespread form of treatment. This is supported by the fact that Serbia is classified as one of 158 world centers of biodiversity, which confirms that this country is a treasure of medicinal herbs. Some of the most used herbs for the treatment of inflammations of various causes in Serbian tradition are yarrow, common agrimony, couch grass, onion, garlic, marshmallow, common birch, calendula, liquorice, walnut, St. John’s wort, chamomile, peppermint, white willow, sage, and many others.

AB  - Ironwort (Sideritis montana L.), mountain germander (Teucrium montanum L.), wall germander (Teucrium chamaedrys L.), and horehound (Marrubium peregrinum L.) are species widely distributed
across Europe and are also found in North Africa and West Asia. Because of their wide distribution
they express significant chemical diversity. For generations, these plants have been used as medical
herbs for treating different aliments. The aim of this paper is to analyze volatile compounds of four
selected species that belong to the subfamily Lamioideae, family Lamiaceae, and inspect scientifically
proven biological activities and potential uses in modern phytotherapy in relation to traditional
medicine. Therefore, in this research, we analyze the volatile compounds from this plants, obtained
in laboratory by a Clevenger-type apparatus, followed by liquid–liquid extraction with hexane as the
solvent. The identification of volatile compounds is conducted by GC-FID and GC-MS. Although
these plants are poor in essential oil, the most abundant class of volatile components are mainly
sesquiterpenes: germacrene D (22.6%) in ironwort, 7-epi-trans-sesquisabinene hydrate (15.8%) in
mountain germander, germacrene D (31.8%) and trans-caryophyllene (19.7%) in wall germander, and
trans-caryophyllene (32.4%) and trans-thujone (25.1%) in horehound. Furthermore, many studies
show that, in addition to the essential oil, these plants contain phenols, flavonoids, diterpenes and
diterpenoids, iridoids and their glycosides, coumarins, terpenes, and sterols, among other active
compounds, which affect biological activities. The other goal of this study is to review the literature
that describes the traditional use of these plants in folk medicine in regions where they grow spontaneously and compare them with scientifically confirmed activities. Therefore, a bibliographic search
is conducted on Science Direct, PubMed, and Google Scholar to gather information related to the
topic and recommend potential applications in modern phytotherapy. In conclusion, we can say that
selected plants could be used as natural agents for promoting health, as a source of raw material
in the food industry, and as supplements, as well as in the pharmaceutical industry for developing
plant-based remedies for prevention and treatment of many diseases, especially cancer.

Seven EO from true lavenders (L. angustifolia Mill. and cultivars: ‘Hidcote blue’, ‘Munstead’, ‘Primorska’), Croatian indigenous lavandin cultivar (L. intermedia ‘Budrovka’), lavandin ‘Grosso’ and one undetermined lavender sample (Lavandula sp.) showed compliance with standard requirements for lavender EO composition (contents of linalool 23.9–30.2% and 28.9–36.9%, and of linalyl acetate 22.2–32.2% and 6.9–20.7% in true lavender and lavandin samples, respectively). All EO were characterized as pleasant, with a floral aroma as a prominent odor. Samples exhibited high antimicrobial activities (3.5–14.2 µL mL-1 MIC and MBC values) against important Gram-positive (B. cereus and L. monocytogenes) and Gram-negative bacteria (E. coli) and yeasts (C. albicans), and high antioxidant capacity (IC50 values of 0.23–0.59 g AAE mL-1 EO). This preliminary research on the quality of lavender EOs reveals the potential of this species for the future of medicinal and aromatic plant species production and further diversification of agriculture in the area.

AB  - Artemisia annua, popularly known as sweet wormwood, is a herbaceous plant from the family Asteraceae. Since ancient times, it has been used in traditional medicine as a plant that has antimalarial activity, due to the presence of the sesquiterpene lactone artemisinin. It also contains phenols and flavonoids because it is classified as a plant with antioxidant, anti -infective and anti-inflammatory effects. The aim of the work was to examine the chemical composition and antioxidative activity of the ethanolic extract of sweet wormwood. In the ethanolic extract of A. annua herb, the content of total phenols was determined using the Folin-Ciocalteu method. The results are expressed as mg gallic acid equivalents/g dry extract (mg GAE/g d.e.). Total flavonoids were determined spectrophotometrically by monitoring the formation of complexes with AlCl3. Results are expressed as mg quercetin equivalents/g dry extract (mg QE/g d.e.). Antioxidant activity was determined by in vitro tests of inhibition of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), hydroxyl (OH), nitroso (NO) radicals and lipid peroxidation inhibition test. The results are expressed as the concentration at which 50% of the radicals are neutralized, or the concentration at which 50% of the lipid peroxidation process is inhibited (IC50). Detailed chemical characterization was investigated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The results are expressed as μg/g dry extract.

Rezultati su izraženi kao koncentracija pri kojoj je neutralisano 50% radikala tj. koncentracija pri kojoj je inhibisano 50% procesa lipidne peroksidacije (IC50). Visokoefikasnom tečnom hromatografijom (HPLC) izvršena je detaljna hemijska karakterizacija. Rezultati su izraženi kao μg/g suvog ekstrakta., Artemisia annua, popularly known as sweet wormwood, is a herbaceous plant from the family Asteraceae. Since ancient times, it has been used in traditional medicine as a plant that has antimalarial activity, due to the presence of the sesquiterpene lactone artemisinin. It also contains phenols and flavonoids because it is classified as a plant with antioxidant, anti -infective and anti-inflammatory effects. The aim of the work was to examine the chemical composition and antioxidative activity of the ethanolic extract of sweet wormwood. In the ethanolic extract of A. annua herb, the content of total phenols was determined using the Folin-Ciocalteu method. The results are expressed as mg gallic acid equivalents/g dry extract (mg GAE/g d.e.). Total flavonoids were determined spectrophotometrically by monitoring the formation of complexes with AlCl3. Results are expressed as mg quercetin equivalents/g dry extract (mg QE/g d.e.). Antioxidant activity was determined by in vitro tests of inhibition of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), hydroxyl (OH), nitroso (NO) radicals and lipid peroxidation inhibition test. The results are expressed as the concentration at which 50% of the radicals are neutralized, or the concentration at which 50% of the lipid peroxidation process is inhibited (IC50). Detailed chemical characterization was investigated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The results are expressed as μg/g dry extract.",

AB  - Elder (Sambucus nigra L.) has relevance for the food, fragrance and pharmaceutical industries. Flowers of this species emit a very pleasant scent; for processing purposes, inflorescences are either collected from the wild or harvested from a cultivated crop. The study of elderflower-derived volatiles bears both phytochemical and commercial importance. Three samples of dry elderflower essential oil obtained from laboratory-scale hydrodistillations were analyzed. By use of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, synthesis and NMR studies of chromatographic fractions of a distillation water extract prepared in a semi-industrial scale steam distillation, 252 constituents of the oil were identified; 115 compounds were not previously reported as elderflower volatiles, seven of which were new natural esters. Particularly interesting were those of isosenecioic (3-methylbut-3-enoic) acid because these were never before found in the plant kingdom. With these identifications, the known essential oil constituents accounted for 89.0–93.0% of the analyzed samples. Although the number of known S. nigra flower-derived volatiles is now quite high, further research is needed to unveil all of the relevant contributions to the unique odor of elderflowers.

AB  - Rose essential oil is one of the most valuable and pivotal raw materials in the perfume industry. However, the limited yield of essential oil in rose flowers increased the interest of both breeders and scientists to create and discover species that have potential for multifaceted applications aiming to increase the economic viability of rose cultivation. Consequently, garden roses (Rosa hybrida) through ongoing development emerge as possibly profitable for cultivation and processing. This opens possibilities for numerous applications in both food and pharmaceutical industries. The main objective of this study was to identify the essential oil composition of R. hybrida cv. Mileva and compare it against essential oil chemical compositions of 32 accessions of other non-commercial (wild and hybrid) roses available literature. The dominant compound detected in R. hybrida cv. Mileva essential oil was geranyl acetate (47.9%), followed by nonadecane and heneicosane. It was shown that the essential oil possesses moderate antimicrobial activity, good antioxidant potential and strong anti-inflammatory activity.

AB  - This research investigated a Balkan endemic species, Achillea clypeolata, collected from two locations (Dobrostan and Ivaylovgrad) in Bulgaria and two locations (Ozren and Rtanj) in Serbia. The goal was to compare the essential oil (EO) of A. clypeolata from these four localities. The EO was isolated from dry aboveground plant parts by hydrodistillation, and the identification of the EO constituents was carried out by GC-MS analyses. Principal Component Analysis (PCA), correlation analysis, and an unrooted cluster tree were used to define distinctions in the presence of volatile compounds in A. clypeolata EO. Results showed that A. clypeolata of Serbian origin (Ozren and Rtanj) contained 1,8-cineole as the main constituent, and belonged to the previously described 1,8-cineole as a dominant compound in the EO profile.

However, data on their safety with relevant biological targets, such as human skin cells, are scarce. Therefore, we have tested nine hydrolates from the Lamiaceae family with skin fibroblasts that are responsible for extracellular collagenous matrix builds. Thyme, oregano, and winter savoury hydrolates showed several times higher total phenolics, which correlated strongly with their radical scavenging and antioxidative capacity; there was no correlation between their viability profiles and the reducing sugar levels.

AB  - Sprouted seeds and microgreens are emerging as innovative specialty raw salad crops, valued for their health-promoting properties. However, the risk of foodborne illnesses associated with microbial contamination in microgreens underscores the need for effective sanitization in their production. This study explores using hydrolates, by-products of essential oil distillation from six plants, as natural sanitizers in alfalfa microgreen production. The research investigates their impact on seed germination, antimicrobial activity, and sensory attributes. Results revealed that oregano, fennel, lavender, and lemon catmint hydrolates decrease alfalfa seed germination, while peppermint and hop hydrolates have no significant impact. Peppermint and fennel hydrolates demonstrate notable efficacy in antimicrobial testing. Sensory analysis indicates differences in odour and flavour, with peppermint, oregano, and lavender receiving high scores. According to the results, peppermint hydrolate can be considered a favourable option for alfalfa micro sprout production, contributing to sustainable and organic approaches in urban agriculture and underlining the importance of natural sanitizers for food safety.

AB  - Helichrysum italicum (Roth) G. Don., (Asteraceae) commonly known as immortelle, everlasting or curry plant is a typical Mediterranean plant, which grows spontaneously and as cultivated in the region of West Mediterranean countries (Portugal, Italy, and France), and region of Balkan-Mediterranean countries (Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Serbia). This geographical division caused a difference in the quality of immortelle essential oil, which is present on the market under the INCI name: Helichrysum italicum flower oil (CAS number: 90045-56-0, EINECS number 289-918-2). Although this oil is in great demand on the international market, there is still no official standard that determines its quality. However, there is a valuation into two types of oil - Corsica us Balkan immortelle essential oil, determined by quantity of main compounds: neryl acetate and apinene. The aim of this research was to collect publicly available GC-MS profiles of commercially offered immortelle essential oils (provided by manufacturers or companies engaged in the trade of essential oils), in order to estimate the market situation. The results showed that the offer on the market of immortelle essential oil indicates the existence of two types of oil Corsica (with 29.8-44.0% neryl acetate, and 0.6-10.2% o-pinene) and Balkan (with 1.9-28.3% neryl acetate and 12.8-29.4% o-pinene), which overlaps with the statements of traders and scientists.
AB  - Helichrisum italicum (Roth) G. Don., (Asteraceae), poznata kao smilje, tipična je mediteranska biljka, koja spontano raste i uzgaja se u regionu zapadnomediteranskih (Portugal, Italija, Francuska) i balkansko-mediteranskih zemalja (Hrvatska, Bosna i Hercegovina, Srbija). Ova geografska podela uslovila je razliku u kvalitetu etarskog ulja smilja, koje je na tržištu prisutno pod INCI nazivorn: cvetno ulje Helichrisum italicum (CAS broj: 90045-56-0, EINECS broj 289-918-2). lako je ovo ulje veoma traženo na međunarodnom tržištu, još uvek ne postoji zvanični standard koji određuje njegov kvalitet. Međutim, postoji podela na dve vrste etarskog ulja smilja- ‘Korzika’ i ‘Balkan’, na osnovu količine jedinjenja: neril acetata i o-pinena. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je prikupljanje javno dostupnih GC-MS profila komercijalnih eteričnih ulja smilja (koju obezbeđuju proizvođači ili kompanije koje se bave prometom eteričnih ulja), kako bi se procenila situacija na tržištu.

abstract = "Helichrysum italicum (Roth) G. Don., (Asteraceae) commonly known as immortelle, everlasting or curry plant is a typical Mediterranean plant, which grows spontaneously and as cultivated in the region of West Mediterranean countries (Portugal, Italy, and France), and region of Balkan-Mediterranean countries (Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Serbia). This geographical division caused a difference in the quality of immortelle essential oil, which is present on the market under the INCI name: Helichrysum italicum flower oil (CAS number: 90045-56-0, EINECS number 289-918-2). Although this oil is in great demand on the international market, there is still no official standard that determines its quality. However, there is a valuation into two types of oil - Corsica us Balkan immortelle essential oil, determined by quantity of main compounds: neryl acetate and apinene. The aim of this research was to collect publicly available GC-MS profiles of commercially offered immortelle essential oils (provided by manufacturers or companies engaged in the trade of essential oils), in order to estimate the market situation. The results showed that the offer on the market of immortelle essential oil indicates the existence of two types of oil Corsica (with 29.8-44.0% neryl acetate, and 0.6-10.2% o-pinene) and Balkan (with 1.9-28.3% neryl acetate and 12.8-29.4% o-pinene), which overlaps with the statements of traders and scientists., Helichrisum italicum (Roth) G. Don., (Asteraceae), poznata kao smilje, tipična je mediteranska biljka, koja spontano raste i uzgaja se u regionu zapadnomediteranskih (Portugal, Italija, Francuska) i balkansko-mediteranskih zemalja (Hrvatska, Bosna i Hercegovina, Srbija). Ova geografska podela uslovila je razliku u kvalitetu etarskog ulja smilja, koje je na tržištu prisutno pod INCI nazivorn: cvetno ulje Helichrisum italicum (CAS broj: 90045-56-0, EINECS broj 289-918-2). lako je ovo ulje veoma traženo na međunarodnom tržištu, još uvek ne postoji zvanični standard koji određuje njegov kvalitet. Međutim, postoji podela na dve vrste etarskog ulja smilja- ‘Korzika’ i ‘Balkan’, na osnovu količine jedinjenja: neril acetata i o-pinena. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je prikupljanje javno dostupnih GC-MS profila komercijalnih eteričnih ulja smilja (koju obezbeđuju proizvođači ili kompanije koje se bave prometom eteričnih ulja), kako bi se procenila situacija na tržištu.",

AB  - Lavender essential oil (EO) applications are numerous; it is most frequently used among EOs in cosmetics, household products, and aromatherapy. The genus Lavandula (common name lavender) includes a large number of species; however, only four of them (L. angustifolia, L. latifolia, L. × intermedia, and L. stoechas) are used for the commercial extraction of EO. Therefore, a comprehensive overview of all the beneficial properties of lavender aromatherapy utilization, methods of application, recommended doses, and mixing abilities with other EOs is given in this chapter. The systematic search for phrase “lavender aromatherapy” via different electronic databases from the first time it was mentioned in a paper (1989) until today (April 2023). In the existing literature, there is evidence of more than 200 published studies, with more than 18,000 participants, that showed lavender EO has a positive effect on sleep quality, anxiety relief, and reduction of depression condition. It is also cognitive enhancing and influences gradual pain relief; therefore, it shows great potential for diverse application in dentistry, preoperative treatments, obstetrics, burns, and cancer patients as an alternative or adjuvant therapy. The reasons for lavender EO becoming popular and fashionable and the increasing demand for it lie in its characteristic pleasant floral-herbal scent and versatile application.
