| Résumé : | The oil of Hypericum hyssopifolium ssp. hyssopifolium aerial parts was analysed by GC and GC/MS. It was found to be rich in sesquiterpenoids and characterized by spathulenol (19.5 %) and two alkanols, tetradecanol (10.2%) and dodecanol (9.3%). Furthermore, the oil was screened for its antimicrobial activity against five microbial strains. However, only a moderate antimicrobial effect of this oil was found against four of the five tested strains. |
