Abstract

Compositions of essential oils extracted from mint herb such as Mentha piperita, Mentha spicata, and Mentha ${\times}$ piperita var. citrate produced in Jeju were analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and headspace-GC-MS (HS-GC-MS). By the GC-MS analysis, 13 compounds were tentatively identified in Mentha piperita, Mentha spicata, and Mentha ${\times}$ piperita var. citrate, respectively. Peperitenone oxide, carvone, and linalool were detected as major compounds in Mentha piperita, in Mentha spicata, in Mentha ${\times}$ piperita var. citrate, respectively, based on the ratio of peak intensity in the total ion chromatogram. The greater number of compounds, including volatile alcohols and acetates were identified by HS-GC-MsS than by GC-MS in these all three essential oils. Similar patterns of composition were detected in both Mentha spicata and Mentha ${\times}$ piperita var. citrate by either one of GC-MS methods. However, in case of Mentha piperita, $\small{L}$-(-)-menthol, which was identified as the major compound by HS-GC-MS was detected in dramatically reduced quantity by GC-MS. Interestingly, we found that both linalyl acetate and linalool were identified as the dominant compounds in the essential oil of Mentha ${\times}$ piperita var. citrate.

제주에서 생산된 페퍼민트, 스피아민트, 오데코롱민트 3종으로 부터 추출한 에센셜오일의 성분을 기체 크로마토그래피-질량분석기(GC-MS)와 headspace-GC-MS (HS-GC-MS)를 이용하여 분석하였다. GC-MS 분석결과 페퍼민트, 스피아민트, 오데코롱민트 각각에서 13종의 성분이 동정되었다. 전체 이온 크로마토그램의 피크 intensity를 기초로 보았을 때, 페퍼민트에서는 peperitenone oxide, 스피아민트에서는 carvone과 limonene, 오데코롱민트에서는 linalool이 주 화합물로 동정되었다. HS-GC-MS 분석에서는 GC-MS와 비교하였을 때 alcohol과 acetate와 같은 휘발성이 강한 성분이 많이 검출되었고, 검출되는 성분의 수도 증가하였다. 하지만 스피아민트와 오데코롱민트의 주 화합물은 GC-MS에서 검출된 것과 같았고, 페퍼민트에서만 GC-MS에서 낮은 함량을 보였던 menthol이 주요화합물로 동정되었다. 흥미롭게도, 오데코롱민트 에센셜 오일에서 linalyl acetate와 linalool의 함량이 탁월하게 높음을 확인했다.
