A Study on the Composition of CommercialVetiveria zizanioidesOils from Different Geographical Origins

Molecular and chemical characterization of vetiver, Chrysopogon zizanioides (L.) Roberty, germplasm

“…The accession UFS-VET007 showed a lower concentration of vetiselinenol (4.63%) relative to the other accessions (Table 5). Similar results were found by Champagnat et al (2006) when they evaluated the chemical composition of the essential oil of vetiver from different locations, revealing a percentage of 7.8% for the compound vetiselinenol.…”

New compounds from the essential oil of Vetiveria nigritana roots from Mali

“…Its identification enabled us to cite it among the components of V. zizanioides 16 and V. nigritana 17 oils. These two previous studies investigated only the composition of the oils, so there was no available 1 H-NMR and 13 C-NMR data.…”

“…6 V. nigritana essential oil has been studied little in comparison with the oil of another species in the same genus, V. zizanioides. [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] More recently, Champagnat et al used GC-MS to identify in V. nigritana oil 54 constituents, representing 79.7% of the total oil. 17 In continuation of these studies on V. nigritana, we have recently isolated four new components whose basic structures were established by NMR and MS data.…”

Microbes at work in perfumery: the microbial community of vetiver root and its involvement in essential oil biogenesis

“…Moreover, diff erences in the quality of the oil may depend on genetic, environmental and technological factors. [1,2] The biological activity of the vetiver oil is also important. Termicidal, insecticidal, antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of vetiver oil have been described.…”
