Its biological activities are associated with the composition of its essential oil which concentrates sesquiterpene lactones, camphor, \u03b1-thujone, \u03b2-thujone, borneol, chrysanthenone and 1,8-cineole in variable proportions depending on the chemotype <span class=\"prod_ref\">(COLLIN &amp; al., 1993\u202f; MOCKUTE &amp; JUDZENTIENE, 2004\u202f; ROHLOFF &amp; al., 2004)<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>Tansy has been used for many years in traditional medicine as an antihypertensive, antispasmodic, anthelmintic, insect repellent, carminative, abdominal viscera stimulant, tonic, emmenagogue, antidiabetic and diuretic remedy <span class=\"prod_ref\">(STEVOVIC &amp; al., 2009)<\/span>.<\/p>\n<h2>PROPERTIES<\/h2>\n<ul style=\"color: #d61163;\">\n<li>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #d61163;\">Insecticidal effects:<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Depending on the dose, tansy is an effective repellant or insecticide and acaricide <span class=\"prod_ref\">(LAZAREVIC &amp; al., 2021\u202f; MAGIEROWICZ &amp; al., 2020)<\/span>.
