“…The results obtained are similar to those reported in the literature where the yield was 1.3-1.8% (w/w, based on the fresh weight of the young leaves) in Buenos Aires (Bandoni et al 1993), but rather small compared to the results reported in the literature where the yield was 1.9-2.7% (w/w, based on the fresh weight of the young leaves) in Morocco (Zira & Benjilali 1996) and 2.68% (w/w, based on the fresh weight of the adult leaves) in Argentina (Viturro 2003).…”

“…The eucalyptus oil consisted mostly of oxygenated monoterpenes (87.32%) and monoterpene hydrocarbons (12.45%), 1,8-cineole determines the commercial value of the oil and its importance as a raw material for different industries. Different percentages of 1,8-cineole in E. globules leaf oil have been reported: 64.5% in Uruguay, 77% in Cuba, 86.7% in California, 58% to 82% in Morocco, 48.7% in Africa, and 50% to 65% in Argentina (Viturro 2003).…”

Food Sci., 29: 277-284.Chemical composition of the essential oil of Eucalyptus globulus Labill., grown in Montenegro, was analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and its antimicrobial activity was evaluated against 17 microorganisms, including food poisoning and spoilage bacteria and human pathogens.The Eucalyptus essential oil yield was 1.8% (w/w) on the fresh weight basis, whereas the analysis resulted in the identification of a total of 11 constituents, 1.8 cineole (85.8%), α-pinene (7.2%), and β-myrcene (1.5%) being the main components. Other compounds identified in the oil were β-pinene, limonene, α-phellandrene, γ-terpinene, linalool, pinocarveol, terpinen-4-ol, and α-terpineol. The results of the antimicrobial activity tests revealed that the essential oil of E. globulus has rather a strong antimicrobial activity, especially against Streptococcus pyogenes, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans, Staphylococcus aureus, acinetobacter baumannii, and klebsiella pneumoniae. Minimum inhibitory concentration revealed the lowest activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Salmonela infantis (3.13 mg/ml) while the highest activity was against S. aureus, E. coli, and S. pyogenes (0.09 mg/ml).

Due to increasing use of natural products, essential oil are also in great demand in various field such as pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food industries. The aim of this study is to determine the chemical composition of essential oil of Eucalyptus globulus grown in Dehradun, India. A total of twenty seven compounds were identified from the essential oil, by Gas chromatography mass spectroscopy representing 100 % of the total oil. The dominant compounds being Eucalyptol (1,8-cineole) 54.79 %, â-pinene 18.54 % á-pinene 11.46 %, â-eudesmol 4.68%, á-phellandrene 2.06% Para cymene 1.60% and Gamma-eudesmol 1.20%. Comparison of the literature on essential oil from Eucalyptus globulus around the world (seven countries) suggested eight compounds that were uniquely present only in Dehradun essential oil sample. Thus, the present study suggested that Eucalyptus globulus growing in Dehradun contains several volatile compounds that are not reported in other Eucalyptus globulus essential oil around the world.

Despite the reputation earned by aromatic and medicinal plants of Algeria, the chemical constituents of Eucalyptus globulus essential oil (EGEO) of Blida origin has not previously been investigated. Thus, the present study has been conducted for the determination of chemical constituents and different physico-chemical properties of the EGEO. Chemical composition of the EGEO, grown in Algeria, was analysed by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry. The chemical components were identified on the basis of Retention Time and comparing with mass spectral database of standard compounds. Relative amounts of detected compounds were calculated on the basis of GC peak areas. Fresh leaves of E. globulus on steam distillation yielded 0.96 % (v/w) of essential oil whereas the analysis resulted in the identification of a total of 11 constituents, 1.8 cineole (85.8 %), α-pinene (7.2 %), and β-myrcene (1.5 %) being the main components. Other notable compounds identified in the oil were β-pinene, limonene, α-phellandrene, γ-terpinene, linalool, pinocarveol, terpinen-4-ol, and α-terpineol. The physical properties such as specific gravity, refractive index and optical rotation and the chemical properties such as saponification value, acid number and iodine number of the EGEO were examined. The oil extracted has been analyzed to have 1.4602 -1.4623 refractive index value, 0.918 -0.919 specific gravity (sp.gr.), +9 -+10 optical rotation that satisfy the standards stipulated by European Pharmacopeia. All the physical and chemical parameters were in the range indicated by the ISO standards. Our findings will help to access the quality of the Eucalyptus oil which is important in the production of high value essential oils that will help to improve the economic condition of the community as well as the nation.
