Abstract. The essential oil from the flowers of Hyperical herb (Hypericum perforatum L.) from the Vlasina region, Serbia, was obtained by steam distillation after drying and grounding of the herbal material. 30 components were resolved in the essential oil by GC-MS analysis, while 21 compounds were identified comparing the recorded mass spectra with the Wiley library of mass spectra. The micro-biological activity of the isolated essential oil was investigated as well. It was found that the essential oil shows micro-biological activity except with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans
SASTAV I ANTI-MIKROBIOLOŠKA AKTIVNOST ETARSKOG ULJA BILJKE KANTARION
(HYPERICUM PERFORATUM L.) SA PODRUČJA VLASINE
Etarsko ulje iz osušenog i samlevenog cvetnog dela biljke kantariona (Hypericum perforatum L.) sa područja Vlasine (Srbija) izdvojeno je destilacijom pomoću vodene pare. Metodom GC-MS analize u ulju je otkriveno 30 komponenata od kojih je 21. komponenta identifikovana poređenjem sa masenim spektrima biblioteke Wiley. Ispitana je i mikrobiološka aktivnost izolovanog etarskog ulja. Utvrđeno je da, sem na Pseudomonas aeruginosa i Candida albicans, etarsko ulje pokazuje mikrobiološku aktivnost.
