The essential oil from the aerial parts of Salvia sclarea L., growing wild in Tajikistan, were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by gas chromatography – mass spectrometry. A total of 59 compounds were identified representing 94.2% of total oil composition. Major components of the essential oil were linalyl acetate (39.2%), linalool (12.5%), germacrene D (11.4%), α-terpineol (5.5%), ger...

Herbal medicines and beverages have started to take an essential place in our daily lives. S. officinalis is one of the most used herbal tea species sage family. Secondary metabolites, especially oils, plays important role its biological properties. oil mostly rich camphor thujone, which these compounds could be toxicological. In present study, six spontaneous hybrid plants their parents were a...

The essential oil of Rosmarinus officinalis L. (rosemary) was obtained by hydro-distillation and analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Sixty-two constituents were identified, representing 98.06% of the total oil content. Oxygenated monoterpenes were the predominant components. The rosemary oil was characterized as having prominent (> 5%) contents of camphor (18.9%), verbenone (11.3%...

     The essential oil of Peucedanum ru t h e n i c u m fruits, obtained by hydrodistillation, was analyzed by gas chromatography and gas chromatography mass spectrometry. Among the 31 identified constituents accounting for 83.9% of the total oil, the major components were 1,8-cineole (11.15%), camphor (5.86%), Z-carveol (6.88%), l-carvone (5.61%), 8,9-dehydroisolongifolene (1...

Background & Aim:Mentha longifolia (L.) Huds is an aromatic perennial herb that belongs to the   family Lamiaceae. The aim of this study was to identify chemical composition of aerial parts   (including leaf, stem and flowers) of M. longifolia collected from   (Kamu mountain) Isfahan province. Experimental: The essential oils were extrac...

Hydrodistilled leaves and fruits of Hoslundia opposita yielded 0.54% and 0.65%v/w of essentials oils. Investigation by GC and GC-MS revealed that the bulk of the oils were constituted by oxygenated monoterpenes (81.3 and 81.4% for the leaves and fruits, respectively). The principal constituents of the leaf oil were 1, 8-cineole (72.3%), terpineol (7.2%), sabinene (4.5%), thymol (4.2%) and car-3...

The seasonal variation in the chemical composition of the leaf essential oil of Zanthoxylum clava-herculis has been analyzed by GC-MS. Three individual trees were sampled four times during the course of the 2004 growing season. Notable differences were recorded in the essential oil yields from the three trees on the four collection dates; yields were highest in May and lowest in July. The leaf ...

the chemical composition of the essential oil obtained from the aerial parts of laurus nobilis l. has been examined by gas chromatography (gc) and gc- mass spectrometery (ms). the main components of the oil were identified. 1,8-cineole was the major component in the oil together with b-terpinyl acetate, terpinene-4-ol, a-pinene, b-pinene, p-cymene, linalool and terpinene-4-ylacetate. the essent...

AIM The purpose of this study was to evaluate how increasing NaCl salinity in the medium can affects the essential oils (EOs) composition and phenolic diterpene content and yield in leaves of Salvia officinalis L. The protective role of such compounds against NaCl stress was also argued with regard to some physiological characteristics of the plant (water and ionic relations as well as the leaf...
