Journal of Pharmacognosy and Phytochemistry · 2018 · Vol. 7(6) · pp. 1709–1713

Abstract

Essential oil from roots of Chrysopogon zizanioides (L.) Roberty, analyse were performed using by gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS), and about 32 compounds were identified in root oil, mainly sesquiterpenes. The characteristic constituents were Valerenol (19.88%), beta-Vatirenene (8.61%), Longiverbenone (3.46%), Germacrene D (3.82%), Aristolene (3.20%), Selin-6-en-4-o (2.99%) and Globulol (2.18).
