The hydro-distilled essential oil from the fresh aerial part of Orchidantha vietnamica K. Larsen collected Lamdong-Vietnam was analyzed by GC-FID (Gas Chromatography-Flame Ionization Detection) and GC-MS Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy) for first time. characterized presence volatile compounds type terpenoids, in which oxygenated monoterpenes (30.04 %) sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (37.32 are maj...

Compositional changes of Citrus tamurana Hort. ex Tanaka (hyuganatsu) essential oil were analyzed after storage for 1, 3, 6, and 9 weeks at -21, 5, 20, and 30 degrees C. The total amount of oxides increased greatly. The contents of monoterpene alcohols and ketones also increased. The total amount of monoterpene hydrocarbons was unchanged up to 30 degrees C. However, the contents of myrcene, gam...

the essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation of flowers of calycanthus floridus l. var.oblongifolius (nutt.) d.e. boufford & s.a. spongberg, planted in sabzevar, khorasan province(iran), was analyzed by gc and gc/ms. eighteen compounds representing 90.1% of theflower oil of calycanthus floridus l. var. oblongifolius were identified, among them 1,8-cineol(33.1%), bornyl acetate (14.1%), α-pin...

The essential oil obtained from the aerial parts of the Turkish endemism Stachys aleurites (Lamiaceae) has been studied. The main constituents were sesquiterpene hydrocarbons: bcaryophyllene (33.7%), bicyclogermacrene (14.5%) and germacrene D (9.6%). The main monoterpene was a-pinene (8.4%). Some chemotaxonomical considerations have been provided. 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Aframomum K.Schum is a genus native to Africa belonging Zingiberaceae. Members of the are aromatic and perennial rhizomatous herbs. Many plant parts species contain essential oils, including fruits, seeds, leaves, stems, rhizomes, pods, husks, pericarps, limbos leaf sheaths. The major constituents plants mainly composed sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, oxygenated monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes monoter...

background & aim:nepeta racemosa is an herbal and medicinal plant and this report aims to   identify chemical compositions of the essential oils and volatiles of its   aerial parts through classical and advanced methods.  experimental: chemical profiles of the essential oils and volatile compounds from the aerial parts of nepeta racemosa obtained through hydrodistillation (hd), solvent-free mic...

Major volatiles from young and mature leaves of different citrus types were analyzed by headspace-solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME)-GC-MS. A total of 123 components were identified form nine citrus cultivars, including nine aldehydes, 19 monoterpene hydrocarbons, 27 oxygenated monoterpenes, 43 sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, eight oxygenated sesquiterpenes, two ketones, six esters and nine misc...

This study aimed to evaluate effects of elevation and phenological stage on essential oil components of Teucrium polium L. and Teucrium orientale L. belonging to the Lamiaceae family. The aerial parts of the grown plants in two ranges of elevation including 2000-2500 and 2500-3000 m above sea level were harvested at three time-points, including end of vegetative, flowering, and seed filling sta...

Emissions of various C2-C10 hydrocarbons (VOCs) and halogenated hydrocarbons (VHOCs) from a boreal wetland and a Scots pine forest floor in south-western Finland were measured by the static chamber technique. Isoprene was the main non-methane hydrocarbon emitted by the wetland, but small emissions of ethene, propane, propene, 1-butene, 2-methylpropene, butane, pentane and hexane were also detec...

Chemical constituents of liverwort (Porella cordaeana) extracts have been identified using solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography mass spectrometry (SPME-GC/MS). The methanol, ethanol and ethyl acetate extracts were rich in terpenoids such as sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (53.12%, 51.68%, 23.16%), and monoterpene hydrocarbons (22.83%, 18.90%, 23.36%), respectively. The dominant compounds i...
