Abstract
This article provides information on the medical use of certain medicinal plants of the Lamiaceae family, as well as on compounds found in essential oils derived from them. The study used natural and artificial methods of drying, extraction, chromatographic methods (TLC, CC), UV spectroscopy methods, and the samples obtained were tested for gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria to determine antimicrobial activity in vitro. Plants that have shown high activity are later used as raw materials for the production of antibiotics.
