The enantiomeric distribution and profile of volatiles in plants, which affect the biological and organoleptic properties, can be varied depending on extraction methods as well as their cultivars. The secondary volatile components of the needles of three conifer cultivars (Chamaecyparispisifera, Chamaecyparisobtusa, and Thujaorientalis) were compared. Furthermore, the effects of three different...

Among the terpenes, isoprene (C5) and monoterpene hydrocarbons (C10) have been shown to ameliorate abiotic stress in a number of plant species via two proposed mechanisms: membrane stabilization and direct antioxidant effects. Sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (C15) not only share the structural properties thought to lend protective qualities to isoprene and monoterpene hydrocarbons, but also react ra...

chemical composition of the essential oil of the fruit of ferula assafoetida l. obtained by steam distillation solvent extraction methodhas been studied by gc/ms for the first time. fifty-four components, comprising 96.9% of the total oil, were identified.epi-α-cadinol (23.15 %), germacrene b (10.98 %), α-gurjunene (6.18 %), (z)-1-propenyl secbutyl disulfide (5.89 %), 5-epi-7-epi-α-eudesmol (4....

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...

Objective(s):Various species of genus Trigonella are important from medical and culinary points of view. The essential oil of Trigonella torbatejamensis Ranjbar as an endemic plant in Iran has not been studied previously. The essential oil of this plant was analyzed by different methods for identification of its components. Materials and Methods: The essential oil composition of aerial parts o...

Production, transformation and essential oils composition of leaves and stems of lemon verbena [Aloysia triphylla (L’Herit.) Britton] grown in Portugal. More than seventy compounds, including 13 n-alkanes, were identified by GC and GC-MS in essential oils from leaves of lemon verbena [Aloysia triphylla (L’Herit.) Britton] plants harvested and analysed with intervals of around two months during ...

Atmospheric oxidation of biogenic hydrocarbons, such as monoterpenes, i estimated to be a significant source of global aerosol. Whereas laboratory studies have established that photochemical oxidation of monoterpenes leads to aerosol formation, there are limited field studies detecting such oxidation products in ambient aerosols. Drawing on prior results of monoterpene product analysis under co...
