| Sumario: | Quantification and characterization of
essential oils of Eucalyptus trees cultivated in
Mendoza (Argentina). This paper presents
data of essential oil contents extracted from
leaves of 35 species of Eucalyptus sp. trees
grown in Mendoza. The aim of this research
was to determine the yield of essential oils and
the content of cineol present in each sample,
in order to evaluate the possibility to make
commercial crops of Eucalytus trees in
Mendoza for the profitable production essential
oils. Leaves samples were distilled with
saturated vapor (vapor stripping) for around 60
minutes. The extracted oil was analyzed by gas
chromatography, and the amount of cineol and
other chemical substances were determined
by mass-spectography. The results obtained
showed that there are a considerable variation
both in volumes and in the cineol contents. |
