Essential Oils and Supercritical CO 2 Extracts of Arctic Angelica ( Angelica archangelica L.), Marsh Labrador Tea ( Rhododendron tomentosum ) and Common Tansy ( Tanacetum vulgare )—Chemical Compositions and Antimicrobial Activities
Traditionally, arctic Finnish Angelica ( Angelica archangelica L.), marsh Labrador tea ( Rhododendron tomentosum , syn. Ledum palustre ) and common tansy ( Tanacetum vulgare ) have been used as medicinal herbs in folklore medicine. However, these underutilised plants are a source of, e.g., oil-based...
