title: The chemical constituents and biological activity of essential oil of Lavandula stoechas ssp. stoechas.
abstract: The composition of essential oil of the leaves of Lavandula stoechas ssp. stoechas, was analyzed by means of capillary GC-MS. The main components of L. stoechas ssp. stoechas oil were pulegone (40.4%), menthol (18.1%), menthone (12.6%).
