Valorization of Brazilian Vetiver (Vetiveria zizanioides(L.) Nash ex Small) Oil

Abstract: The valorization of extracts from Brazilian vetiver (Vetiveria zizanioides (L.) Nash ex Small) roots was studied. This study took into account the extraction method, the chemical composition of the extracts, their sensorial characteristics, and the possibility of chemical transformations of the product. The performed extraction methods were hydrodistillation and extraction with supercritical carbon dioxide. Some pretreatment methods were tested on the vetiver roots and evaluated in terms of extraction yield, p… Show more

“…This tonality indicates the presence of some volatile compounds that have been reported to be mainly sesquiterpenes and their derivatives. Among these, the major active constituents identified are khusimol, vetivone, eudesmol, khusimone, zizaene, and prezizaene, which are considered to be the fingerprint of the oil [6][7][8][9][10][11].…”

“…Chrysopogon zizanioides Nash, Poaceae, popularly known as vetiver and "grama-das-índias", is one of the most important raw materials in perfumery (Martinez et al, 2004). The genus Vetiver has recently been reclassifi ed (Adams et al, 1998), and is now combined with Chrysopogon (Veldkamp, 1999), based on their overlapping genetic and morphological data.…”
