More recently, Cha et al. [82] investigated the chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of the essential oils of Artemisia scoparia and Artemisia capillaris Thunb. The essential oil from Artemisia scoparia was rich in camphor. Fig. (1), 1,8-cineole, Fig. (2) and (3-caryophyllene. Fig. (3) as the major compounds, whereas Artemisia capillaris oil was rich in 3-pinene. Fig. (6), P-caryophyllene, Fig. (3) and capillene. The essential oils and some of their major compounds were tested for their antimicrobial activity against 15 different genera of oral bacteria. The essential oils exhibited considerable inhibitory effect against all the oral bacteria tested, while the major components demonstrated various degrees of growth inhibition.

The antiparasitic properties of essential oils from A. absinthium, Artemisia annua, and Artemisia scoparia were tested on intestinal parasites Hymenolepis nana, Lamblia intestinalis, Syphacia obvelata, and Trichocephalus muris Trichuris muris). Infested white mice were injected with 0.01 mL/g of the essential oils (6%) twice a day for 3 days. The effectiveness of the essential oils was observed in 70% 90% of the tested animals (Chobanov et al., 2004).

The compound 6,7-dimethoxycoumarin or scoparone isolated from the herb Artemisia scoparia possesses vasodilator and hypolipidemic effects and has been tested in rabbits with hyperhpidemia and diabetogenic condition. Administration of this coumarin for a week was able to reduce total cholesterol and triglycerides to normal values. Furthermore, scoparone treatment retarded the characteristic pathomorphological changes associated with hyperlipidemia such as intimal thickening or accumulation of fatty streaks and foam cells [264].
