Two rare compounds Vetispirane (C15H28) and Guaiane sesquiterpenes in frankincense essential oil have a medicinal use with high economic value.
For the first time, the hydrolysis method used to determine frankincense essential oil compounds was successfully applied and published by scientists from the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology and Nguyen Tat Thanh University and published in the scientific journal. International Study Processes of MDPI.
The scientists sampled A. Crassna frankincense cultivated in three provinces of Bac Giang, Khanh Hoa and Phu Quoc (Kien Giang) for hydrolysis. In the hydrolysis process, these frankincense samples resulted in essential oil yields of 0.32%, respectively; 0.27% and 0.25% (w / w).
By gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) has found 44 volatile compounds in the essential oil.
In addition to the common compounds found in frankincense essential oil, they found small amounts of two rare compounds, Vetispirane and Guaiane sesquiterpenes.
Vetispirane often appears in diuretics, which help lower potassium in the blood. This compound was previously only found in frankincense in China.
Guaiane sesquiterpenes are compounds that are effective against pathogenic fungal cells and inhibit cancer-causing cells.
Previously, traditional methods such as pressing and extraction could only find fatty acids and aromatic groups.
Two compounds Vetispirane and Guaiane sesquiterpenes in frankincense essential oil play an important role in contributing to the discovery of new drugs, of high medical and economic value.
In addition, the verification of the high content of neopetasane compounds (7.47–8.29%), dihydrokaranone (2.63–3.59%), β-agarofuran (3.04–6.18%) and agarospirol (2.98–3.42%) also opens up the future. Frankincense essential oil will be used as a highly commercialized flavoring agent.
Agarwood is a rare species of wood, but the process of processing agarwood oil in Vietnam is still rudimentary, most of it is sold only in raw, unprocessed form, losing the economic and medical value of agarwood. Therefore, scientists are studying the feasibility of the method to be widely applied in local essential oil production sites.
