[Analysis on the volatile oil in Origanum vulgare].
OBJECTIVE
To analysis compositions of the volatile oil in Origanum vulgare.


METHODS
GC-MS condition: using programmed temperature gas chromatography cinitial temperature was 60 degrees C, and then raising the temperature (5 degrees C/min) to 240 degrees C, mass-to-electric charge ratio was 10 to 425.


RESULTS
GC-MS identified 29 kinds of contents.


CONCLUSIONS
Thymol and carvacrol are main compositions of the volatile oil in Origanum vulgare.
