title: [Analysis of the constituents of volatile oil from Fructus Auranti Immaturus by GC-MS].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To analysis the constituents of volatile oil from Fructus Auranti Immaturus by GC-MS.
  
  
  METHODS
  The volatile oil was extracted by steam distillation, then separated by capillary gas chromatography. The constituents of volatile oil were identified and their amount were determined by normalization method.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Nineteen components were identified from Fructus Auranti Immaturus and their amount accounted 95.791% of total volatile oil. The main components were Limonene (68.25%), gamma-Terpinene (13.02%), alpha-Terpinol (3.28%), beta-Cymene (3.09%), beta-Myrcene (2.34%), alpha-Pinene (1.53%), beta-Pinene (1.05%).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The main component of volatile oil from Fructus Auranti is Limonene.
