Steam distillation was used for the isolation of L. (Moldavian dragonhead) essential oil (DMEO). This aromatic herbaceous plant is widespread across the Northern Hemisphere regions and has been utilized in health-improving studies and applications. In addition to the DMEO, the hydrolate (DMH), a byproduct of the distillation process, was also collected. The DMEO and DMH were analyzed and compared in terms of their chemical composition, as well as their in vitro biological activities. The main component in DMEO was geranyl acetate, while geranial was dominant in DMH. The DMEO demonstrated better antioxidant and antimicrobial activities compared with the DMH against , , Typhimurium, and , which represent sources of food-borne illness at the global level. The DMEO and DMH show promise as antioxidant and antimicrobial additives to various products.
采用水蒸气蒸馏法分离毛建草精油（DMEO）。这种芳香草本植物广泛分布于北半球地区，并已用于健康改善研究及应用中。除了DMEO外，还收集了蒸馏过程的副产物水解液（DMH）。对DMEO和DMH的化学成分及其体外生物活性进行了分析和比较。DMEO的主要成分是乙酸香叶酯，而DMH中香叶醛占主导地位。与DMH相比，DMEO对代表全球食源性疾病来源的大肠杆菌、金黄色葡萄球菌、鼠伤寒沙门氏菌和单核细胞增生李斯特菌表现出更好的抗氧化和抗菌活性。DMEO和DMH有望作为各种产品的抗氧化和抗菌添加剂。
