Reviewer 2 Report
The following manuscript with the title "Evaluation of Motor Coordination and Antidepressant Activities of Cinnamomum osmophloeum ct. Linalool Leaf Oil in Rodent Model" is well prepared. Introductory story goes very well. Results and discussion section is presented in a good manner, including presentation of tables and figures. Material and methods are clearly presented and conventional methodology is applied for this type of the study.
I would suggest minor corrections of the manuscript before publication. Please correct typographical mistakes throughout the manuscript; eg. first sentence in introduction Cinnamomum should be italicized in full not like Cinnamomum etc. Some sentences could be better constructed especially in results section.
