Abstract
Objective:
To analyze the constituents of the essential oils extracted from nine samples of commercial seeds of Myristica fragrans Houtt respectively and to provide qualities control foundations.
Method:
Water steam distillation and GC-MS were used.
Result:
95-118 compounds were separated respectively. 79 Compounds being identified which were 95.18%-98.70% of the total essential oil.
Conclusion:
Myristicin (39.63%) and terpene series were the main compounds.
