Abstract:

The essential oil of the species Origanum vulgare L. was studied in two environmentally divergent areas (Khirbat al-Sanasil, Ain Liloun). Its quantity and quality and the effect of sea-level rise on essential oil properties were determined. It was found that the best percentage of essential oil was recorded at Ain Liloun site, where the percentage of essential oil was (1.8 ml / 100 g), while in Khirbat al-Sanasil it was (0.9 ml / 100 g). Chemical composition was studied using gas chromatography GC / MS, where it was found that the main compounds are phenolic compounds. The location of Ain Liloun was characterized by a higher percentage of carvacrol by (61.02%) and thymol (11.25%) compared to the site of Khirbat Al-sanasil where the proportion of carvacrol was (48.21%) and thymol attained (9.02%).

Keywords:

Origanum vulgare L., Essential oil, gas chromatography GC / MS.
