Objective: To analyze and compare the chemical constituents of the volatile oil from fresh and dried Rhizoma Musae. Method: Essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation from fresh and dried Rhizoma Musae which came from the same plant
was analyzed by GC-MS. Result: Thirty-six compounds were characterized
representing 76.28% of the fresh Rhizoma Musae volatile oil
whereas in the dried Rhizoma Musae oil
only 32 compounds were characterized
representing 81.78 %. Conclusion: Among them
the majority were pentadecanal
squalene and heptenal. Their relative content was 19.60%
11.46%
8.69% in fresh Rhizoma Musae oils and 17.37 %
8.87%
5.07 % from dried Rhizoma Musae
respectively. The relative contents of other chemical constituents were different.
