| Abstract |
The chemical composition of the essential oils from leaves and stems of Psidium guajava, grown in Tunisia were determined by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry GC-MS. Twenty-one compounds were determined. The major compounds identified in the oil of the stems were a-humulene (10.93\%), Germacrene D(16.79\%) and Valerenol (10.62\%), whereas leaf oil was dominated by Veridiflorol (36.4\%) and Trans-caryophyllene (5.9\%). The yield of the oil was 0.66\% (v/w). (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. |
