ABSTRACT:
Chemical Approach
Essential oils are mixtures of volatile and lipophilic organic compounds, produced by plants as part of their secondary metabolites. These compounds are responsible for characteristic aromas and volatility, and are commonly obtained by techniques that separate the volatile fractions from the plant matter (KHAN et al., 2023).
