Abstract:

The headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) method combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was used to extract and analyze the volatile components of Mongolian thyme herb,the peak areas were normalized to obtain the relative content of each component. A total of 56 volatile components were detected, of which, phenolic alcohols, terpenes, alkenes, esters, aldehydes, and ketones were the primary chemical compounds. linalool (27.8%), borneol (9.12%), camphor terpene (8.12%), limonene (7.81%), etc. were found to be the main ingredients. This is the first study wherein HS-SPME was performed in combination with GC-MS to analyze the volatile components of Mongolian thyme herb found in the Shandong area. The chemical components were found to be rich and have a high medicinal value.

Key words: Mongolian thyme herb, headspace solid-phase microextraction, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry
