title: Analysis by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry of the volatile components of Ageratina adenophora Spreng., growing in the Canary Islands.
abstract: The essential oil of Ageratina adenophora Spreng., growing in the Canary Islands was analyzed by GC-MS. A total of 78 volatile compounds was identified and p-cymene (11.6%) was the major component in the oil. The sesquiterpene fraction (44.3%) was higher than the monoterpene one (32.1%).
