Comparative Analysis of Organic Components in Extracted and Commercial Clove Oil Using GCMS

Shweta Chand, Ritik Pandey

Abstract: Aromatic plants are those species whose leaves, flowers, roots or other parts produce and release pleasant smells. Essential oils are plant extracts which are highly concentrated and are obtained from different parts of plants. The present study aims to analyze the organic components present in clove essential oil extracted from clove flower buds and to compare them with commercially available clove oil. Clove oil was extracted using steam distillation and analyzed using GCMS. The analysis revealed that eugenol is the predominant compound in both extracted and commercial clove oil, although the concentration varies significantly. This comparative study highlights the differences in chemical composition, emphasizing the impact of extraction methods on the purity and efficacy of clove oil.

Keywords: Clove oil, GCMS, steam distillation, eugenol, essential oils
