This is the first report about the composition of the essential oil of Salvia x jamensis. The major compounds identified by GC-MS were ß-caryophyllene (14.8%), ß-pinene (6.8%), caryophyllene oxide (6.0%), δ-cadinene (5.5%), α-pinene (5.2%) and spatulenol (5.2%). The oil showed antimicrobial activity against three Gram (+) bacteria: Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, and S. epidermidis, and three Candida strains: C. albicans, C. glabrata and C. tropicalis, while it was inactive against three Gram (-) bacteria: Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli and Enterobacter cloacae

Abstract
This is the first report about the composition of the essential oil of Salvia x jamensis. The major compounds identified by GC-MS were ß-caryophyllene (14.8%), ß-pinene (6.8%), caryophyllene oxide (6.0%), δ-cadinene (5.5%), α-pinene (5.2%) and spatulenol (5.2%). The oil showed antimicrobial activity against three Gram (+) bacteria: Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, and S. epidermidis, and three Candida strains: C. albicans, C. glabrata and C. tropicalis, while it was inactive against three Gram (-) bacteria: Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli and Enterobacter cloacaeFile in questo prodotto:
