The research aimed to analyze the volatile compounds by using SPME-GC-MS and to detect anticholinesterase, antityrosinase, and antimicrobial potential of metanol extract of Alceacalvertii Boiss., an endemic species for Türkiye. The inhibitory effects of tyrosinase, acetylcholinesterase, and butyrylcholinesterase of the plant were determined by spectroscopic technique and the plant’s antimicrobial activity was assessed using the agar diffusion method. A total of 18 volatile compounds were specified belonging to terpenes classes. o-cymene (10.60%) and sesquicineole (15.55%) were detected as major volatile components of the species by the SPME-GC-MS technique. Meaningful antimicrobial activity was observed on Candida tropicalis, Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Mycobacterium smegmatis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of the plant was determined 60.12 ± 1.75 μg/mL as a result of tyrosinase assay. IC50 value was found 111.54 ± 1.75 μg/mL, according to butyrylcholinesterase inhibition studies. Considering all the findings, it has been determined that the plant includes diverse volatile compounds and showed promising antimicrobial, tyrosinase inhibitory, and moderate butyrylcholinesterase inhibitory effects so Alceacalvertii may be the up-and-coming source of natural medicine for microbial and dermatological diseases although limited to its effects for Alzheimer's disease.
