This study developed a simple, accurate, and sensitive gas chromatography (GC) method for quantifying eugenol in Ocimum oil. The validated method ensures reliable analysis of eugenol content, crucial for quality control.

Area of Science:

  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Phytochemistry

Context:

  • Ocimum oil is valued for its aromatic properties and potential bioactivities.
  • Accurate quantification of key constituents like eugenol is essential for quality control and standardization.
  • Existing methods may lack the sensitivity or simplicity required for routine analysis.

Purpose:

  • To develop and validate a robust gas chromatography (GC) method for the precise determination of eugenol.
  • To establish optimal parameters for GC analysis of eugenol in Ocimum oil.
  • To provide a reliable analytical tool for researchers and industry professionals.

Summary:

  • A gas chromatography (GC) method was established using Chromosorb WAW with 10% PEG-20M as the stationary phase and a column temperature of 200°C.
  • The calibration curve demonstrated linearity between 2-10 mg/mL eugenol.

  • The method achieved an average recovery of 101.24% with a relative standard deviation of 0.79%, indicating high accuracy and precision.

    • Impact:

    • Provides a simple, accurate, and sensitive method for eugenol determination in Ocimum oil.
    • Facilitates quality control and standardization of Ocimum oil products.
    • Supports further research into the chemical composition and applications of Ocimum oil.
