| Abstract | ||||
| The volatile oil of Salvia fruticosa which was extracted from the dry and fresh green leaves using hydrodistillation had a yellow color/aromatic and its percentage was (0.7,0.3)% respectively. The oil was studded for its constitutes by GC-MS . The results showed the high presence of ten components (1,e-Cineole, 1,e-Cineol Isomer ,Camphor, 'rrans-p Caryophyllene .o-Plnene . ~-Myrcene, Linalool . a.- Terpineol, «-Terptneol isomer, a.-Camphene ) in dry leaves and three components (1,8-Cineol Isomer .campnor .c-Terpineol isomer) in fresh leaves. Antibacterial study showed that the volatile oil extract from dry leaves inhibited the growth of E. coli I K. pneumonia, S. aureus and P. mirabilis with an inhibition zone approximately (5.6, 5.3, 5.7, 4.6) mm respectively. However the oil extract from fresh leaves showed a significant inhibitory effect toward S. aureus , with an inhibition zone about 22 mm. this result was very close to the neomycin as positive control (20 mm). On the other hand there was not any activity against the other three species of the bacteria used in this study. | ||||
