  "abstract": "<p>This work reports volatile constituents, antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of volatile oils from the air-dried flower and aerial parts (APs) of&nbsp;<em>Arabis alpina</em>&nbsp;L. ssp.&nbsp;<em>alpina</em>. The volatile components of flower and aerial parts (stem + leaf) were investigated by means of hydrodistillation in Clevenger type apparatus and GC/MS/FID analysis. Fifty-one and fifty-three compounds in the volatile oils of flower and APs of&nbsp;<em>A. alpina</em>&nbsp;were identified. Terpene derivatives were the major volatiles in both oils. Hexahydrofarnesyl acetone was the main component of flower oil and APs oil in ratios of 16.27% and 26.94%, respectively. Additionally, both flower and APs essential oils were investigated for their antimicrobial activity against twelve bacteria and five fungi, using agar dilution method and antioxidant activities by using DPPH<strong>˙</strong>, ABTS<strong>˙</strong><sup>+&nbsp;</sup>and Folin-Ciocalteu assays. Flower oil was effective against&nbsp;<em>B. subtilis&nbsp;</em>and&nbsp;<em>B. cereus&nbsp;</em>even at 100&micro;g/mL. The amount of total phenolic, %DPPH<strong>˙&nbsp;</strong>scavenging activity and ABTS<strong>˙</strong><sup>+</sup> scavenging activity were found as 485.60&plusmn;7.28 mg/mL GAE, 49.85&plusmn;1.22% and 166.43&plusmn;12.05&micro;M Trolox equivalent, respectively. Flower oil exhibited antimicrobial effect against gram positive bacteria especially, and moderate antioxidant activity.</p>",
