Composition and chemical variation of the essential oil from leaves of Eugenia brasiliensis Lam. and Eugenia sp. (Myrtaceae)

Composition and chemical variation of the essential oil from leaves of Eugenia brasiliensis Lam. and Eugenia sp. (Myrtaceae)

The essential oils from leaves of Eugenia brasiliensis and Eugenia sp. collected bimonthly during one year (four times in the 15 th day of January, March, May, July, September, and November 2004) were subjected to GC-FID and GC/MS analysis. The obtained data showed a significant variation in the pro...

Description
Summary:The essential oils from leaves of Eugenia brasiliensis and Eugenia sp. collected bimonthly during one year (four times in the 15 th day of January, March, May, July, September, and November 2004) were subjected to GC-FID and GC/MS analysis. The obtained data showed a significant variation in the proportions of the components, which could be associated to climatic parameters in each collection periods
