The aim of the study was comparing the chemical composition of the essential oils from five varieties of lavender (Lavandula angustifolia L.), and its biological activity against two pathogenic bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In the comparison we included the following varieties: 'Munstead', 'Munstead Strain', 'Lavender Lady', 'Ellegance Purple' and 'Blue River'. Selected varieties of lavender (L. angustifolia) are characterised by exactly the same main compounds with only variations in the percentage of content. The primary components of the essential oils were: linalool (23.9-15.8%), linalyl anthranilate (12.3-1.6%), 1-terpinen-4-ol (9.7-5.5%), p-menth-1-en-8-ol (7.9-4.0%) and linalool oxide (4.7-1.1%). From the essential oils that were tested, the 'Blue River' and 'Munstead' varieties have the greatest antibacterial activity against S. aureus and P. aeruginosa.
本研究旨在比较五种薰衣草（Lavandula angustifolia L.）精油的化学成分及其对两种致病菌金黄色葡萄球菌和铜绿假单胞菌的生物活性。在比较中，我们包括了以下品种：“Munstead”、“Munstead 品种”、“Lavender Lady”、“Ellegance Purple”和“Blue River”。薰衣草（L. angustifolia）的选定品种具有完全相同的主要化合物，只有含量百分比的差异。精油的主要成分是：芳樟醇（23.9-15.8%）、芳樟醇邻氨基苯甲酸酯（12.3-1.6%）、1-萜品烯-4-醇（9.7-5.5%）、薄荷-1-烯-8-醇（7.9-4.0%）和芳樟醇氧化物（4.7-1.1%）。在所测试的精油中，“Blue River”和“Munstead”品种对金黄色葡萄球菌和铜绿假单胞菌具有最强的抗菌活性。
