Loretta Ennes de Carvalho scite author profile

The chemical composition of essential oils obtained from the leaves (leaflets and rachis), branches and resin of Protium decandrum (Aubl.) Marchand, Burseraceae, growing in the Amazon forest were examined by GC-MS. The oils extracted from leaves showed varying content of terpin-4-ol (rachis: 64.8 %; leaflets: 33.0 %). The sesquiterpene trans-α-bergamotene was the major component identified in the oil from branches (22.1 %) and resin (47.7 %).
