The composition of the hydrodistilled essential oil of leaves of Pistacia lentiscus L. (Anacardiaceae) was analysed by GC-MS. Twenty-seven compounds were identified, representing 58% of the total oil. alpha-Pinene (17%), gamma-terpinene (9%) and terpinen-4-ol (12%) were characterized as the main constituents. The essential oil was tested for its antimicrobial and antimutagenic activity. Copyright (c) 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
