SCREENING STUDIES OF WOODY PLANTS AS SOURCES OF ESSENTIAL OILS
https://doi.org/10.25684/0513-1634-2023-147-7-18
Abstract
The article presents the results of screening studies of raw materials of woody plants growing in humid subtropical conditions (“Sochi National Park”, “Arboretum” park) for the presence of essential oil. The mass fraction of essential oil was determined in fresh raw materials by hydrodistillation on Ginsberg apparatuses. The component composition of essential oils was established using a hardware and software complex based on the chromatograph “Chromatek-Crystal 5000.2”. The raw materials (freshly harvested leaves) of 52 species and cultivars of wood introduced species were studied. Essential oil was detected in 39 species. A high yield of essential oil (from 0.5% of the wet weight) was noted in Melaleuca armillaris (Sol. ex Gaertn.) Sm. (0.51%), Laurus nobilis L. (0.53%), Callistemon salignus cv. ʹMauve Mistʹ (0.54%), Eucalyptus globulus Labill. (0.57%), Eucalyptus niphophila Maiden & Blakely (0.66%), Callistemon linearifolius (Link) DC. (0.70%), C. coccineus F. Muell. (0.78%), C. viminalis (Sol. ex Gaerth.) G. Don (0.80%), Thuja plicata cv. ʹZebrinaʹ (0.85%), Callistemon phoeniceus Lindl. (0.86%), Cinnamomum camphora (L.) J. Presl (1.2%), C. glanduliferum (Wall.) Meisn. (1.6%), Eucalyptus cinerea F. Muell. ex Benth. (1.14%), E. globulus subsp. globulus (1.67%). The highest yield of essential oil among the studied species was noted in Umbellularia californica (Hook. & Arn.) Nutt. – 5.10% of the wet weight.
