The vapour distillation was used to extract the volatile oil of Chimonanthus salicifolius with different storage time, determine the content of cineole in volatile oil by GC, to study the influence of storage time on the content of volatile oil and cineole of C. salicifolius. We found that the content of volatile oil in fresh herbs of C. salicifolius was 0.023 0 mL x g(-1), it was decreased to 0.020 0, 0.017 5 mL x g(-1) respectively after storing for 4, 12 months; the GC methodological study of precision, stability and repeatability, RSD < 2%, the average recovery rate was 99.50%, RSD 1.7%; the content of cineole in fresh volatile oil was 54.30%, it was increased to about 62% and remained stably with the time. Therefore, the content of volatile oil and cineole of C. salicifolius can change with the storage time; GC method for the determination of the content of cineole is accurate, reliable, specific and repeatable, it's suitable as a quality control method of C. salicifolius.

This study investigates the phenolic compounds (PC), volatile compounds (VC), and fatty acids (FA) of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) derived from the Turkish olive variety "Sarı Ulak", along with ADMET, DFT, molecular docking, and gene network analyses of significant molecules identified within the EVOO. Chromatographic methods (GC-FID, HPLC) were employed to characterize FA, PC, and VC profiles, while quality parameters, antioxidant activities (TAC, ABTS, DPPH) were assessed via spectrophotometry. The analysis revealed a complex composition of 40 volatile compounds, with estragole, 7-hydroxyheptene-1, and 3-methoxycinnamaldehyde as the primary components.

Emission rates for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have been quantified from frying, spice and herb cooking, and cooking a chicken curry, using real-time selected-ion flow-tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS) for controlled, laboratory-based experiments in a semi-realistic kitchen. Emissions from 7 different cooking oils were investigated during the frying of wheat flatbread (puri). These emissions were dominated by ethanol, octane, nonane and a variety of aldehydes, including acetaldehyde, heptenal and hexanal, and the average concentration of acetaldehyde (0.

The current study had aimed to assess the long-term dietary supplementation with Melaleucae aetheroleum, tea tree essential oil (TTO). The impact on growth performance, biochemical indices, immune function, oxidant/antioxidant activity, gene expression, histopathology, and resistance against Aeromonas sobria in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) was investigated. Four groups (with five replicates; G1 (control group, G2, G3, and G4) of Nile tilapia received diets enriched with TTO (doses of 0.
