TI - Essential oil composition of Myrrhis odorata (L.)Scop. leaves grown in Lithuania and France KW - MYRRHIS ODORATA (L.)SCOP KW - GEOGRAPHIC ORIGIN KW - ESSENTIAL OIL COMPOSITION KW - E-ANETHOLE N2 - The chemical composition of essential oils of sweet cicely (Myrrhis odorata (L.)Scop.)leaves from two geographic areas (Lithuania and France)were determined by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Comparatively slight differences were observed in the chemical composition of essential oils from both selected origins. The yield of essential oil varied from 0.4±0.02 percent in Lithuanian to 0.5±0.01 percent in French origin. In total twenty and twenty-six components were identified in the hydrodistilled oils of Lithuanian and French origin, respectively. The essential oils of both origins were found to be rich in E-anethole (48.1±1.4 percent and 50.7±1.1 percent), methyleugenol (14.3±0.5 percent and 13.1±0.4 percet), E-nerolidol (10.2±0.8 percent and 12.0±0.3 percent)and germacrene-D (5.0±0.1 percent and 4.3±0.3 percent) UR - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KJ7CFUA95zcyBAZF1Wxt-R3DcQ34JoQ3/view?usp=drivesdk ER -
