1‐diphenyl‐2‐picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and β‐carotene/linoleic acid tests were used to determine the antioxidant activity. Terpin‐4‐ol (14.95%), sabinene (13.07%) and γ‐terpinene (11.22%) were found to be the major constituents in the essential oil of M. fragrans by gas chromatography, whereas (E)‐caryophyllene (15.35%), α‐eudesmol (14.06%), β‐eudesmol (8.74%) and γ‐eudesmol (7.64%) were encountered in the essential oil of S. microphylla.[1]
