Abstract
- The aerial parts of Ruellia menthoides (Acanthaceae) were submitted to steam distillation from which an intense spicy and camphoraceous aroma was obtained. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis associated to co-injection of standards suggested mono and sesquiterpenes as the main compounds. Aroma extract dilution analysis indicated 1,8-cineole and S-(−)-camphor as the most intense compounds of the extract using chiral gas chromatography. Odor threshold for both compounds was determined by gas chromatography-olfactometry. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
