Quality Analysis of Agarwood Produced by Fungal in Duction of Aquilaria sinensis
To investigate whether the quality of agarwood produced after 7 months of fungal inducer Aqui-laria sinensis meets industry standards and its main chemical components.The study focuses on agarwood in-duced by fungi in Shiwan and Xingdaohu for 7 months.The content of its alcohol-soluble extract was deter-mined,its color reaction was observed,its fingerprint was analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatog-raphy,and its main chemical components were analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS).The alcohol-soluble extracts of agarwood from Shiwan and Xingdaohu were(19.29±8.30)%and(22.54±5.96)%,respectively.The chromogenic reactions showed purplish red and light purple,and the high-performance liquid chromatography characteristic spectrum also showed 6 characteristic peaks,which met the agarwood industry standards;Shiwan and Xingdaohu agarwood had 12 and 15 Sesquiterpene,accounting for 30.80%and 30.06%respectively,4 and 5 2-(2-phenylethyl)chromones,accounting for 24.81%and 30.62%respectively.In this study,the agarwood of Shiwan and Xingdaohu for 7 months induced by fungal in-ducer can meet the industry standard of agarwood,and the content of Sesquiterpene and 2-(2-phenylethyl)chromones can reach 55.61%and 60.08%,providing new theory and method for artificial induction of agar-wood.
