Abstract
The Lamiaceae family, which contains about 200 genus and 3000 species, has a cosmopolitan distribution. Plants of this family are rich in essential oils and phenol compounds. Thymus vulgaris (Thyme) is perennial, subshrub plant which belongs to family of Labiates. Calyx and corolla are covered by dense gleaming glands that eradiate essential oil. Leaves or herba, and essential oils are used. Thymus serpyllum (Wild Thyme) is perennial, herbaceous plant. Leaves are evergreen, small and oval. Commitee on Herbal Medicinal Products (HMPC) classifies thyme herba and essential oil as a traditional herbal medicine used as expectorant in cough associated with cold. It is used in folk medicine to treat many diseases, including respiratory disease (cough pertussis, bronchitis and asthma), and has analgesic properties. Wild Thyme is approved for use in treatment of cough and bronchitis. It is unproven to treat kidney and bladder disorders. It is also used internally for dysmenorrheal, colic-like p...ain, and whooping cough. Thymol and carvacrol from essential oils of Thyme and Wild Thyme inhibit lipid peroxidation and manifest strong antimicrobial activity against different kinds of microorganisms. All the aromatic and medicinal plants available worldwide have been used for their preservative and medicinal values. Polyphenolic phytochemicals in traditionally used medicinal plants act as powerful antioxidants, which aroused an increasing interest in their application in functional food development. Recently, there has been growing considerable interest in extracts and essential oils of aromatic plants for the development of alternative food additives, in order to prevent the growth of food-borne pathogens or to delay the onset of food spoilage.

Familija Lamiaceae (Usnatice) obuhvata veliki broj kosmopolitskih vrsta, među kojima i vrste T. vulgaris (timijan) i T. serpyllum (majčina dušica), koje karakteriše prisustvo etarskih ulja i fenolnih jedinjenja. Timijan predstavlja višegodišnju polužbunastu biljku. Čašicu i krunicu gusto pokrivaju trihome u kojima se sintetišu i skladište etarska ulja. Koristi se list ili zeljasti nadzemni deo biljke u cvetu i etarsko ulje. Majčina dušica je višegodišnja zeljasta biljka. Cvetne grane su ravnomerno prekrivene žlezdanim trihomama. Koristi se nadzemni deo biljke u cvetu. Herbal Medicinal Product Committee (HMPC) klasifikuje herbu i etarsko ulje timijana kao tradicionalni biljni lek koji se koristi kao ekspektorans kod kašlja udruženog sa prehladom. Potvrđena primena majčine dušice je u tretmanu kašlja, bronhitisa i upalnih procesa gornjih disajnih puteva. Snažnu antioksidativnu aktivnost timijan duguje visokoj koncentraciji polifenolnih kiselina i flavonoidima. Timol i karvakrol prisutni ...u etarskom ulju majčine dušice inhibiraju lipidnu peroksidaciju i ispoljavaju antimikrobno dejstvo na različite vrste mikroorganizama. Dugogodišnja tradicionalna primena aromatičnih i lekovitih biljaka, pritisak potrošača da se toksični i kancerogeni sintetski aditivi zamene prirodnim supstancama i pojava multirezistentnih sojeva mikroorganizama povećavaju interes za istraživanjem datih biljnih vrsta, što bi omogućilo njihovu širu primenu u medicini, prehrambenoj, farmaceutskoj i kozmetičkoj industriji.
