Abstract

Objective: To analyze the constituents from the rhizomes of Atractylodes lancea and A. chinensis in essential oils.

Method: GC-MS method was used.

Result: 32 and 29 compounds were identified respectively.

Conclusion: The main constituents in the essential oils from the rhizome of A. chinensis are beta-eudesmol or a mixture of beta-eudesmol and atractylone, whereas from that of A. lancea are hinesol, a mixture of beta-eudesmol and atractylone, and atractylone.
