A microwave-assisted hydrodistillation protocol was modified to extract essential oils from leaves of Salvia triloba L. and Laurus nobilis L. The essential oils of these plants are generally obtained by hydrodistillation or steam distillation. The volatile compounds obtained by microwave-assisted hydrodistillation and hydrodistillation methods were analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Both distillation me...

The essential oil of Betula pendula Roth. buds was obtained using both hydrodistillation and microdistillation techniques and their chemical compositions were analyzed using both gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Overall, more than 50 compounds were identified representing 80% and 92% for hydrodistillation and microdistillation, respectively. The main com...

Traditional hydrodistillation (HD), steam distillation extraction (SD), organic solvent extraction (SE), and microwave assisted hydrodistillation (MWHD) techniques were compared and evaluated for their effectiveness in the isolation of essential oil of Melissa officinalis from Algeria. The microwave assisted hydrodistillation technique was optimized in terms of both delivered power and time dur...

the genus haplophyllum, which belongs to the rutaceae family, includes 18 species in iran. in this study, after collecting plant material, botanical identification and suitable drying, the essential oils from aerial parts of haplophyllum robustum bge. were extracted by three different isolation techniques, conventional hydrodistillation (hd), microwave-assisted hydrodistillation (mahd) and solv...

Microwave-assisted hydrodistillation was used to isolate an essential oil from the leaves of Cinnamomum iners Reinw. ex Bl., and the results compared with those obtained by conventional hydrodistillation. The composition of the oil from both methods was found to be similar, and (-)-linalool was found as the main component (30-50%). The antioxidant activity of the essential oil obtained by both ...

Hydrodistilled volatile oils, as well as the extracts from waste water after hydrodistillation from the aerial parts of Satureja montana and Satureja cuneifolia, growing wild at Mt. Biokovo (Croatia), were analyzed by GC-MS. Sixty compounds were identified in four samples. The major constituents of essential oil obtained from the plant material of S. montana were carvacrol (63.4%) and thymol (1...

Volatile components from Rhizoma Alpiniae Officinarum were respectively extracted by three methods including hydrodistillation, headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) and diethyl ether extraction. A total of 40 (hydrodistillation), 32 (HS-SPME) and 37 (diethyl ether extraction) compounds were respectively identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and 22 compounds were ...

The relative proportions of chemical classes (hydrocarbons, oxides, alcohols, ketones, esters) in the essential oil of rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L., Lamicaeae) and in the volatile fraction of the infusion extracts were examined and showed remarkable differences.The volatile compounds of the infusion were isolated by two different methods, hydrodistillation and solid phase extraction (SPE...

In this paper, comparison of the volatile components composition in the samples obtained by hydrodistillation and solid-phase microextraction of Salvia officinalis was described. Different sample preparation techniques showed considerable differences in volatiles composition, especially with respect to sesqui- and diterpenoids. The comparison of the sage essential oil obtained by hydrodistillat...
