Analysis of experimental results of volatile oil components of Acorus gramineus by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry
Objective:To analyze the experimental results of volatile oil from Acorus gramineus by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.Methods:The volatile oil from the rhizome of Acorus gramineus was obtained by water distillation,separated and identified by GC-MS,and the content of corresponding components in the volatile oil was determined by gas chromatography area normalization method.Results:After analysis,the results showed that there were more than 100 kinds of compounds in the volatile oil,and there were 25 compounds with relative content higher than 0.01%,accounting for 92.37%of the total.The two compounds with higher content were α-asarone,accounting for 32.29%,and β-asarone,accounting for 53.59%.The recovery rates of α-asarone and β-asarone were 100.2%and 103.1%,respectively,and the repeatability,accuracy and stability of α-asarone and β-asarone did not exceed 2%.The determination time lasted for 20 minutes,and the content of β-asarone and α-asarone in five batches of volatile oil from Acorus gramineus was(534.82±1.50)mg/g and(57.04±0.69)mg/g,respectively.Conclusion:The volatile oil of Acorus gramineus was identified by GC-MS,and it was found that both α-asarone and β-asarone were the main components,and β-asarone was the highest content.
