โฆ Synopsis
The chemical compositions of essential oils of some Piper species were determined by capillary GC and capillary GCยฑMS. Elemol (11.5%) constituted the most abundant component of Piper nigrum leaf oil, b-Caryophyllene (13%) was the major constituent of P. attenuatum leaf oil, whereas b-cubebene (10%) was the major constituent of P. attenuatum berry oil. Cubebol (23.6%) was the major component of P. cubeba berry oil.
