Area of Science:

  • Pharmacognosy
  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Chemical Engineering

Background:

  • Mentha haplocalyx, a valuable medicinal herb, requires stability assessment for its essential oil.
  • Understanding the shelf life of M. haplocalyx is crucial for maintaining its therapeutic properties and quality.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To predict the stable shelf life of Mentha haplocalyx.
  • To identify key volatile compounds influencing its stability.

Main Methods:

  • Head-space solid-phase microextraction coupled with Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) for volatile analysis.
  • Factor analysis and principal component analysis (PCA) for comprehensive evaluation of essential oil.
  • Initial average rate stability tests using essential oil content and main volatiles as indices.

Main Results:

  • Pulegone and isomenthone were identified as key indicators of M. haplocalyx quality.
  • Stability tests predicted a shelf life of 5.49 years based on essential oil content.
  • A shelf life of 2.88 years was predicted based on pulegone and isomenthone content at 20°C.

Conclusions:

  • The stable shelf life for Mentha haplocalyx at 20°C is determined to be 2.88 years.
  • Pulegone and isomenthone are critical markers for predicting the stability and quality of M. haplocalyx.
