title: [Comparative study on volatile oils in flower and stem of Lonicera japonica].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To study the volatile oils in flower and stem of Lonicera japonica. Thunb.
  
  
  METHODS
  GC-MS.
  
  
  RESULTS
  36 constituents are isolated and identified in all, of which 28 from Flos Lonicerace and 26 from Caulis Lonicerae. 18 compounds are found simultaneously in both crude drugs and they account for 85.23%, 83.42%, respectively. Palmatic acid and linoleic acid are the highest principles.
