Abstract
Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is one of few analytical methods used successfully in many laboratories worldwide, for huge applications in research and industrial purposes. Chemical composition of 10 Salvia species including S. judaica Boiss (S1), S. viridis var. horminum L. (S2), S. officinalis L. (S3), S. palaestina Bentham (S4), S. syriaca L. (S5), S. pinardi Boiss (S6), S. lanigera Poiret (S7), S. ceratophylla L. (S8), S. dominica L. (S9) and S. spinosa L. (S10) was analyzed using FTIR spectroscopy. FTIR spectra analysis revealed 10, 11, 12, 11, 10, 9, 12, 8, 8 and 12 observed peaks for S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6, S7, S8, S9 and S10 Salvia species, respectively. Overall, FTIR observed peaks belonged to 9 functional groups [(Aromatics, Ethers, Carboxylic acids, Alcohol and hydroxyl, Alkanes, Olefinic (alkene), Common inorganic ions, Ammonium and immonium and Amine and amino compounds)]. These functional groups are known for their biological activity. Performance Salvia analytical analysis to determine the different bioactive components existent in each observed functional groups is required.
