Essential oil compositions of Fortunella polyandra from Malaysia. The Malaysian Journal of Fundamental and Applied Sciences (MJFAS), 16 (5). pp. 557-559. ISSN 2289-599X (2020)
Abstract
The essential oils obtained from the fresh leaf, peel and twig of Fortunella polyandra growing in Shah Alam, Malaysia were hydrodistillated and analyzed using gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). α-Eudesmol (31.0%), hedycrayol (20.1%) and γ-eudesmol (19.7%) were the major components in the leaf oil. The peel oil was characterized by high proportions of limonene (71.4%) and γ-terpinene (15.2%), while α-gurjunene (26.4%), hedycrayol (23.5%) and γ-eudesmol (22.1%) were the main constituents in the twig oil.
