[Study on the chemical constituents of the essential oils from Chrysanthemum indicum collected in Jinyun Mountains, Chongqing].
OBJECTIVE
To analyse the chemical constituents of essential oils from Chrysanthemum indicum collected in Jinyun Mountains.


METHODS
The essential oil was extracted by steam distillation and analyzed by GC-MS.


RESULTS
The GC chromatogram of the essential oil had 92 peaks among which 69 were identified to be 66 compounds whose relative contents summed to account for 90. 07% of the total essential oil.


CONCLUSIONS
It indicates Chrysanthemum indicum in Jinyun Mountains is good as medicine or for food. The place of origin has obvious influence on the chemical compostions of Chrysanthemum indicum's essential oil.
