Abstract

It is necessary to process large quantities of the plant material to gain enough essential oils in quantities sufficient for commercial-scale tests. Certain compounds (monoterpenes) in the oils exhibit much stronger activity than overall essential oils. Such investigations may contribute to sustainability and should encourage cultivation of plant varieties that produce these compounds in larger quantities as a resource for new formulations of active substances that should be patented by chemical industry.
