[Determination of d-borneol in the different parts of Cinnamomum camphora by GC-MS].

OBJECTIVE: To measure and compare the content of d-borneol in the different parts of Cinnamomum camphora by GC-MS. METHOD: With water-steam distillation and GC-MS method, d-borneol was extracted and determined. RESULT: The linear range of d-borneol was 0.4-2.8 microg (r = 0.999 9). The average recovery was 95.40%, and RSD was 0.56%. CONCLUSION: The method is simple and accurate with good separation. The content of d-borneol in the dried leaves 63.97% in the crude exfract. It can provide the proof of the exploitation of C. camphora.
