A comparative study of the essential oil from flowers and fruits of lepisanthes rubiginosa (Roxb.) Leenh
The essential oils extracted by hydrodistillation from the flowers and fruits of Lepisanthes rubiginosa (Roxb.) Leenh. were analyzed by capillary GC and GC-MS. The major components of the flower essential oil were nerolidol (34.8%), palmitic acid (13.2%) and farnesol (10.0%). For the fruit essential...
