	abstract = {The volatile metabolites of Greek wild growing Thymus leucospermus and Thymus teucrioides subsp. candilicus were determined by gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The monoterpene hydrocarbon p-cymene (64.2\%) dominated T. leucospermus oil, followed by γ-terpinene (7.9\%), thymol (4.8\%), and borneol (4.7\%), whereas the most abundant constituents in T. teucrioides subsp. candilicus oil were p-cymene (25.5\%), γ-terpinene (19.0\%), thymol (18.8\%), borneol (5.7\%), and α-pinene (5.7\%). The larvicidal and repellent activities of the analyzed essential oils were tested on Culex pipiens larvae and adults, respectively. Additionally, the main metabolite of the essential oils, p-cymene was tested against C. pipiens adults in order to define the affiliation between p-cymene and the repellent properties of the oil. The essential oils of T. leucospermus and T. teucrioides subsp. candilicus provided repellency 78.1\% and 72.9\%, respectively, statistically equal to the reference product icaridin. The compound p-cymene showed almost no repellent activity. The essential oil of T. leucospermus presented lower larvicidal activity (LC50 = 34.26~mgl-1) against C. pipiens third-fourth instar larvae while T. teucrioides subsp. candilicus was the most active with an estimated LC50 value of 23.17~mgl-1. {\textcopyright} 2011 Springer-Verlag.},

	abstract = {The essential oil composition from Thymus striatus collected from Mountain Orjen (Montenegro) has been investigated by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Thymol, γ-terpinene and p-cymene were found to be the major components. Furthermore, the oil and its major component, thymol, were analysed for potential antifungal activity against plant, animal and human pathogenic fungi from different genera by a macrodilution test. The oil exhibited a strong inhibitory effect against all fungi investigated. Copyright {\textcopyright} 2004 John Wiley \& Sons, Ltd.},

In the brine shrimp lethality test, Mentha pulegium was the only sample found to be active with an LC50 value 347.3 mug/ml, while all remaining samples had LC50 values greater than 1000 mug/ml. In case of Caco-2 and HepG2 cell lines, only one sample, namely Thymus parnassicus Halacsy, was active with LC50 values 44.6 and 50.3 mug/ml respectively, while against MCF-7 cell line, two samples, namely, Clinopodium vulgare L. (LC50: 60.4 mug/ml), and Thymus parnassicus Halacsy (LC50: 54.7 mug/ml), were found active. Copyright (C) 2003 John Wiley Sons, Ltd.},
