Composition of essential oil from an annual crop ofHyssopus officinalis grown in indian plains

Effect of Various Parameters on the Selective Extraction of Main Components from Hyssop Using Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE)

“…The main constituents of the oil were sabinene (11.0%), iso-pinocamphene (10.9%) and pinocamphene (8.2%). The minor compounds identified were pseudo-cumene, nopinone, myrtenol, isophytol, beta-bourbonene, methyl eugenol, beta-caryophllene, betaSelective Extraction of Main Components from Hyssop (Steinmetz et al, 1980;Dunian et al, 1990;Dzhumaev et al, 1990;Schulz andStahl-Biskup, 1991 Shan, 1991;Tsankova and Kontaktchiev, 1993;Kerrola et al, 1994;Gorunovic et al, 1995;Vallejo et al, 1995;Salvatore et al, 1998;Garg et al, 1999;Piccaglia et al, 1999;Mitic and Dordevic, 2000;Jankovsky and Land, 2002;Özer et al, 2005). Qualitatively, the profiles of the compounds in the essential oils of the reported species were somewhat similar but the relative abundances of each component varied with those conditions.…”

“…Numerous studies in the literature have reported on the composition of volatile oils isolated from hyssop. The major constituents of essential oil extracted from this herb were reported to be pinocamphene, iso-pinocamphene, β-pinene, 1,8-cineole, myrtenol, eugenol, methyl eugenol, limonene, germacrene-D, elemol, linalool and pinocarvone (Steinmetz et al, 1980;Dunian et al, 1990;Dzhumaev et al, 1990;Schulz and Stahl-Biskup, 1991;Tsankova and Kontaktchiev, 1993;Garg et al, 1999;Piccaglia et al, 1999;Gorunovic et al, 1995;Vallejo et al, 1995;Salvatore et al, 1998;Shan, 1991;Kerrola et al, 1994;Mitic and Dordevic, 2000;Jankovsky and Land, 2002;Özer et al, 2005). Studies have shown that the composition of essential oils of a given herb can vary with genotype, location and climatic conditions.…”

Comparative evaluation of the essential oil composition from the leaves and flowers of Hyssopus officinalis L.

“…The GC and GC-MS analysis of the essential oil led to the identification of 21 compounds representing 95.6% of the oil, having seven monoterpene hydrocarbons (32.3%), five oxygenated monoterpenes (60.5%) one phenol (0.2%) and six sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (0.35%). The major constituents of the camphorous odoured oil were pinocamphone (49.1%) >β-pinene (18.4%) >isopinocamphone (9.7%) (Garg et al, 1999). The oil obtained by hydrodistillation from the aerial parts of H. officinalis L. subsp.…”
