Review and Study of Achillea milefollium Essential oil Compounds in Various Stages of Development
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 10, Issue 8
Abstract
Milfoil with the scientific name Achillea Millefolium is perennial ,stable plant from Asteraceae family. this plant grows in different parts of Iran and world. milfoil mainly containing of essential oils, flavonoids, alkaloids and tannins and have various health benefits. due to the extensive use of essential oils of milfoil in indifferent field of medicine, cosmetic and nutrition ,it was also suggested that the chemical compounds available in this plant could be identified in various stages of plant development. Methodology: Achillea millefolium had collected during the prior stage of flowering ,after that and fruiting stage of Dizin region in Tehran province from second half of July to the early August in 2014.the samples essential oil after completely drying the plant was extracted using by Clevenger apparatus after with water distillation method and essential percentage determination of each sample, the Gas chromatography (GC ( and the Gas chromatography connected the mass spectrometry )GC/MS( to identify qualitative and quantitative combination of essential oil constituent was used. Findings: The obtained essential oil has been analyze by GC and GC-MS machines which finally 57 of different combination were identified for each 3 of essential. normal alkans consist of the most combination of plant essential in each 3 stage before the flowering ,flowering and fruiting which the percentage of this combination was mentioned during 3 stages 46/8%,42/1%,32/4% of the total essential components respectively. Results and discussion : The normal alkane nonadekan also has the most percentage of essential constituents in each 3 stage compering to the other component so that its consist of 30/5% before the flowering,27/3% in flowering stage and 18/9%in fruiting stage of the total essential component of this combination .the another abundant combination in essential before flowering is normal alkane Heneicosane .in flowering and fruiting stages also ,the oxygenation monoterpene 8 Cinoel -1 has the most abundant after nonadekan composition. based on similarity of the available percentage matter ,the essential before flowering has more alignment than the essential flowering .
