Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

Pine resources are abundant in Greece and Turkey. Pinus halepensis Mill., P. brutia Ten. and P. pinea L. are the main species for gum oleoresin production. Chemical composition of oleoresins of these species were studied by GC and GC MS, using DB 5 capillary column. The results show that these oleoresins have common characteristics of that of subgen. Pinus, but all their amount of abietic acid are more than 20 %. The monoterpene compounds in P. pinea oleoresin consists mainly of limonene.
