Identification of natural components by GCMS
Focusing on sandalwood (Byakudan), which is used as a raw material for incense! Here is an example of component analysis using GC-MS.
Due to the risk of depletion of natural ingredients, artificially synthesized alternative components may be used, and their identification is suitable for separation and analysis using methods such as GCMS. This time, we focused on sandalwood (Byakudan), which is used as a raw material for incense. We tested whether the components of sandalwood could be detected in two types of incense (A and B) with its fragrance. In incense A, santanol was detected, while in incense B, santanol was not detected, and another fragrant component was found. Among these, bugdanol is a type of synthetic fragrance, and due to its structural characteristics, it is believed to have a sandalwood-like scent. [Components of Incense A] ■ Bugdanol: Trace amounts ■ Cedrol: None ■ α-Santalol: Present ■ β-Santalol: Present *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
