Abstract

In this study, we conducted the extraction of essential oil of Vietnamese Glycosmis stenocarpa leaves using two different methods such as conventional microwave-assisted hydro-distillation (MAHD) and hydro-distillation (HD). The obtained products were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The essential oil performance achieved similarly in two samples. Additionally, GC-MS results revealed that the total chemical ingredients of HD essential oil were 29 compounds and that of MAHD essential oil was 28 constituents. Additionally, chemical constitutes of the two essential oils were similar, with the major components being citronellal, neryl acetate, citronellyl acetate and geranyl acetate.
