Abstract

Basedon 329samples from28 counties ofFujian Province,components ofessential oil were analyzed by GC-MS.The results showed that there was higher content of essential oil in Cinnamomum camphora(L.) Presl leaf from Fujian Province(mean content 1.084%).58 compounds were identified and their relative contents were determined by normalization method of areas.58 compounds represented 96.909% of total peak areas.Its main compounds included linalool(43.732%),camphora(14.431%),1,8-cineole(10.457%),safrole(7.079%),α-terpineol(2.570%),and β-phellandrene(2.231%),etc.These constituents represented 80.5% of total peak areas.
