Abstract
Albania is rich in biological and ecological diversity and it is well-known for its natural bio-resources such as medicinal and aromatic plants. It is a significant producer and exporter of herbs and in particular of Salvia officinalis L. The extraction of essential oil from Salvia officinalis L. is carried out by a Soxhlet technique and the obtained oil is characterized by means of FTIR spectroscopy. IR analysis indicated presence of monoterpenes such as thujones, camphor, 1,8-cineole and pinene.
