A New Geraniol Chemotype of Ocimum gratissimum L.
Abstract
The essential oils which were obtained from the leaves, flowers and stems of Ocimum gratissimum in concentrations of 1.34%, 1.49% and 0.14% respectively, were examined by GC/MS. Fifteen constituents in the essential oils were identified with geraniol (83.7-88.8%) as the major constituent. Other major constituents included gamma-muurolene (1.58-3.88%), beta-caryophyllene (1.2-2.9%), neral (1.35-3.82%) and limonene (0.74-1.91%). Essential oil composition was similar among plant parts. Eugenol and thymol reported as the major constituent of Nigerian and Indian oil could not be detected in this oil. This is the first report of a geraniol-rich essential oil from O. gratissimum.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
