[Study on the chemical constituents of the volatile oil from aerial parts of Isodon eriocalyx var. laxiflora].

OBJECTIVE: To study the chemical constituents of the volatile oil from the aerial parts of Isodon eriocalyx var. laxiflora. METHOD: The oil was obtained by hydrodistillation. The chemical compositions were separated and identified by GC-MS. The relative contents in the oil were determined by area normalization. RESULT: 163 peaks were separated and 105 compounds were identified, constituting 85.68% of the total peak area. CONCLUSION: 105 compounds characterized by GC-MS analysis were found from I. eriocalyx var. laxiflora for the first time.
