Abstract
Essential oil of Ammodaucus leucotrichus subsp. leucotrichus Coss & Dur (endemic), extracted from the seeds by hydrodistillation, was screened for its possible antimicrobial activity as well as its chemical composition. According to the Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry analysis, 35 components were identified (98.23%), perillaldehyde (45.58%) and limonene (14.02%) being the major components. The antimicrobial test of the essential oil showed that Staphylococcus aureus (MIC = 4.5 mg/ml) and Bacillus cereus (MIC = 9 mg/ml) were the most sensitive strains, followed by Candida krusei and Candida albicans (MIC = 18 mg/ml both).
