AB  - Peppermint oil is isolated from the plant Mentha piperita L,which is an aromatic perennial herbs belonging to the family of Lamiaceae foundall over the world. Peppermint oils of several mentha species can be used forpharmaceutical and nutritional aspects, as natural additives in medicine,drugs, foods, mouthwash, toothwash, chewing gum and confectionary because oftheir antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, pesticidal, anti-inflammatory andantimicrobial propertiesand pain decreasing and immunity increasingactivities.In this study is to research the difference of the chemicalconstitutients of essential oil from some commercial mint oils and edible drymint with Clevenger method. We have investigated the chemical composition ofthe mint oil samples with GC/MS and optical rotations were determined to seewhich chemicals might cause this difference.We have found that the best essential oil with regard to menthol contentis the purchased Turkish mint oil sample. Chinese mint oil was the second.Edible mint oil is rich in carvone.The mintessential oil of dry mint leaves obtained with Clevenger method has a highcarvone content, so it could be used in aromatherapy and alternative medicine
