Antioxidant activity was investigated using Β-carotene/linoleic acid, DPPH·, ABTS cation radical decolorization and Metal chelating assays. Antibacterial activity was performed according to disc diffusion and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) methods.Chemical composition, antioxidant and antibacterial activities of the essential oil of mentha spicata l. from AlgeriaArticle84995684642
