The volatile oil has considerable amounts of polyphenolic and flavonoids compounds which are responsible for the antioxidant properties. And also they give the higher reductive potential due to reducing capacity and DPPH free radical scavenging activity which serves as strong indicator of antioxidant activities.

The herb extracts consist of complex mixtures of major compounds

For instance,

polyphenols and terpenoids are two groups of constituents

which are contained in many plant extracts; the former possess a

strong binding ability to different molecular structures like

proteins or glycoproteins, while the latter have great affinities for

cell membranes and therefore, a high potential to permeate

through cell walls of the body or bacteria, even polyphenols and

terpenoids have not contributed directly to the pharmacological

therapy achieved by the total herb extracts, but the polyvalence

of these compounds can enhance the overall efficacy when

co-administrated with other active compounds.

Interesting reflections for learning

Hello sir kindly look at this paper

Due to the large number of different compounds you may find in an essential oil, these may all be acting on different pathways to exert their effect which in combination may produce a greater effect than the individual compounds alone (i.e. a synergistic effect). However, to study these compounds individually you first need to know what compounds you have in your oil. This requires techniques to separate and identify your compounds such as HPLC GC-MS etc. Once you know which compounds you have you can then start to investigate the pathways they effect either in silico using various docking and interaction programs, or by using cell culture methods and investigating gene/protein expression. once you have done that for all the major compounds you think are important from you essential oil, you can then see if any of the pathways complement each other, and whether the may really be some true synergistic effects.
