is an arid lands herb that has been used in Native American traditional medicine, is a potential source of pharmacologically active compounds, and has been explored as a source of biofuel. The purpose of this work was to examine the essential oil composition of from southern Idaho. Gas chromatographic methods revealed the essential oil of var. to be rich in monoterpenoids, α-pinene (21.9%), limonene (17.1%), terpinolene (10.6%), and borneol (6.5%). The essential oil composition of from Idaho is similar to that previously reported from specimens collected from Montana and confirms the volatile phytochemistry of plants growing in North America. The major essential oil components were screened for antimicrobial activity against respiratory and dermal pathogens. (-)-β-Pinene showed strong antibacterial activity against (MIC 39.1 μg/mL) and (-)-borneol showed strong activity against (MIC 78.1 μg/mL).
是一种旱地草本植物，已被用于美洲原住民传统医学中，是具有潜在药用价值的化合物的来源，并且已被探索作为生物燃料的来源。这项工作的目的是研究来自爱达荷州南部的 的精油成分。气相色谱法显示， var. 的精油富含单萜烯，α-蒎烯（21.9％），柠檬烯（17.1％），萜品烯（10.6％）和龙脑（6.5％）。爱达荷州 的精油成分与以前从蒙大拿州采集的标本报告的成分相似，证实了北美生长的植物的挥发性植物化学。主要的精油成分被筛选出对呼吸道和皮肤病原体的抗菌活性。（-）-β-蒎烯对 （MIC 39.1μg/mL）具有很强的抗菌活性，而（-）-龙脑对 （MIC 78.1μg/mL）具有很强的活性。
