Published: December 2010

Objective: To analyze and compare the volatile components of Asarum sieboldii Miq, Asarum himalaicum Hook. F. et Thoms and Asarum. debile Franch in the same area.

Methods: The volatile components were extracted from three Radix et Rhizoma Asari by solid-phrase microextraction and their contents were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).

Results: 59, 99 and 85 volatile components were identified from Asarum sieboldii Miq, Asarum himalaicum Hook. F. et Thoms and Asarum debile Franch, representing the ralative content of 82.75% - 99.43% of the volatile oil. 16 of same components were identified in the three Radix et Rhizoma Asari, and the contents of the same components were different among them. In addition, some unique components were identified in them respectively.

Conclusion: There were differences among the chemical components and the contents of the volatile oil of the three Radix et Rhizoma Asari. The results could give certain reference value for the medicine whether Asarum himalaicum Hook. F. et Thoms and Asarum debile Franch can replace Asarum sieboldii Miq.

The smoky brown cockroach, Periplaneta fuliginosa, is a peridomestic pest inhabiting broad regions of the world from temperate to subtropical zones. In common with other related species such as the American cockroach, Periplaneta americana, female-emitted sex pheromone components, named periplanones, are known to be key volatiles that elicit long-range attraction and courtship rituals in males. How periplanones are processed in the nervous system has been entirely unexplored in P.

Lipids contribute significantly to the flavor of cell-cultured fish meat as precursor components of flavor compounds. Here, we initially reported the differences in lipid metabolite profiles and volatile compounds between adipogenic differentiation of adipose stem cells (ASCs) and adipocytic transdifferentiation of muscle stem cells (MSCs) from large yellow croakers. A total of 2106 lipid metabolites were identified by UPLC-MS/MS.

State Key Laboratory of Plant Diversity and Specialty Crops, Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, 100093, China.

Thyme and oregano essential oils (EOs) and their components have numerous applications in the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industries owing to their antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and immunological properties. We attempted to create new chemotypes through the hybridization of thyme and oregano for functional EO research and product development. Here, we used interspecific hybridization to create new thyme and oregano germplasms with new EO chemotypes.
