Abstract
Volatile flavor compounds Angelica gigas Nakai and Angelica acutiloba Kitagawa were extracted by SDE (simultaneous steam distillation & extraction) using the mixture of n-pentane and diethylether (1:1, v/v) as an extract solvent and analyzed by GC-FID and GC-MS. The amount of essential oils of top part and root in Angelica gigas were obtained in 0.063% (v/w) and 0.389% (v/w) yields as a fresh weight base, respectively. The main compounds in top parts and the root were identified as nonane (7.51% and 24.49%, respectively), ${\alpha}-pinene$ (14.64% and 31.75%), limonene+${\beta}-phellandrene$ (14.01% and 9.66%), ${\gamma}-terpinene$ (7.85% and 1.20%), germacrene-d (5.85% and 0.22%), (E,E)-${\alpha}-farnesene$ (6.05% and 1.40%), ${\beta}-eudesmol$ (5.26% and 1.84%). Although these compounds were present in both parts. The results showed large differences in. the concentrations of them much varied. The amount of essential oils stem and leaf obtained (0.068% and 0.127% in A. gigas) and (0.153% and 0.243% in A. acutiloba) yields as a fresh weight base, respectively. More than 18 and 32 components in stem and leaf have been identified, which of main components in A. gigas were ${\alpha}-pinene$, myrcene, limonene, germacrene-d, eudesmol and butylphthalide, but germacrene-d and butylphthalide contents were also different in stem and leaf. And more than 21 and 32 components in A. acutiloba were ${\gamma}-terpinene$ and butylphthalide. Volatile compounds were very different in both species.
