A rapid extraction procedure for fingerprint chromatogram of different types of Mentha piperita L. (Labiatae family) is presented. The extracts were analysed by gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The main volatile compounds identified by the gas chromatography-mass spectrometric
