Origanumvulgare L. (oregano) and Rosmarinusofficinalis L. (rosemary) are vegetal species belonging to the
family Lamiaceae, popularly known as oregano and rosemary. Aromatic plants are used in the treatment and prevention of diseases and in the culinary as
functional food in the preparation and conservation of foods. In the chemical
composition of oregano and rosemary are present bioactive compounds with
antimicrobial, antioxidant and flavoring effect. Several reports in the
literature have presented the chemical composition and biological activity of
the essential oils of oregano and rosemary. However, few studies have been
carried out regarding the chemical composition and biological potential of the
aqueous and ethanolic extracts of Origanumvulgare L. and Rosmarinusofficinalis L.
Evidencing a need to investigate the chemical composition and antifungal
activity of these extracts. The objective of
the study was to evaluate the bioactive compounds and antifungal activity of
the aqueous and ethanolic extract of Origanumvulgare L. and Rosmarinusofficinalis L. The aqueous and ethanolic extracts of Origanumvulgare L. and Rosmarinus
