Description
Summary:The aims of the present study were to evaluate for the first time the chemical composition and antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal and antiproliferative potentials of the Romanian <i>George 90</i> lavender species, as well as parental species, <i>L. angustifolia</i> and <i>L. latifolia</i>. The <i>L. angustifolia</i>, <i>L. latifolia</i> and <i>George 90</i> essential oils were analyzed by GC-MS/MS and the <i>L. angustifolia</i>, <i>L. latifolia</i> and <i>George 90</i> hydroalcoholic extracts were analyzed by HPLC-DAD. The antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal and antiproliferative assays revealed that all the investigated species showed significant activities. The results highlighted the chemical composition and the promising biological potentials of the <i>L. angustifolia</i>, <i>L. latifolia</i> and <i>George 90</i> lavender species, validating their ethnomedicinal value, which offers potential applications as natural drugs.
