Essential oils are volatile substances, which are soluble in alcohol, less soluble in water and consist of a mixture of esters, aldehydes, ketones and terpenes. Essential oils are obtained from aromatic and medicinal plants. To date, 2000 different plants have been identified that produce them. In plants, the production of essential oils takes place in specialized secretory formations, such as oil-bearing vessels, glandular walls, oil-bearing pores and idioblastic oil cells. The main methods of receiving essential oils are distillation (water distillation, hydro-steam distillation, etc.), extraction (with hot or cold fat, with volatile solvents, etc.) and mechanical application (by scraping, crushing, etc.). a.).
Most essential oils come from fruits, flowers, shrubs and trees. Indicative aromatic plants from which essential oils are produced are the following: wild cypress, basil, clove, jasmine, helichrysum, geranium, rosemary, elemi, eucalyptus, thyme, yarrow, cedar, lemon, cypress, lavender, frankincense, louise, marjoram, mint, ylang ylang, myrrh, angelica, neroli, pine, orange, oregano, rosewood, sandalwood, ginger, rose, ylang-ylang, sage, chamomile, etc.
The laboratory Modern Analytics undertakes analyzes for:
-Essential oil content in the aromatic plant with the Clevenger method
-Full analysis of the composition of the essential oil with the technique of gas chromatography combined with mass spectroscopy (GC-MS).
-Control-Assessment of Fraud-Dilution
-Analysis of Pesticides in the plant and in the essential oil
-Specific weight
-Esterification Number-Ester Value
-Acidity-Acid Value
-Refractive index
-Optical turn
With each GC-MS analysis we provide a relevant certificate of analysis so that the producer or trader can certify the quality of their product.
Contact us for special cooperation packages with producers that include continuous and complete control and monitoring of the quality of essential oils throughout the production process up to marketing.

Analysis of essential oils
The quality of essential oils depends on various physical
stable and mainly by their chemical composition. To make it complete
analysis of an essential oil the following must be determined:
A. Physical constants. Of these, the most important are:
- Specific weight
- Refractive index
- Rotational ability
- Solubility
- Melting point
B. Chemical composition. The identification of the ingredients is of great importance
because quality mainly depends on their presence and quantity
of essential oils
Essences is volatile substances isolated by a process such as distillation, from one aromatic plant of a particular plant kind of.
Essential oils – volatile oils, are of plant origin and are characterized by a distinctive smell and some measure of reaction to hydrolysis. From a chemical point of view it is mainly terpenes. Some essential oils consist almost exclusively of one ingredient.[2] In essential oils, their main components belong to the category of terpenes, which are usually synthesized in the biosynthetic pathway of mevalonic acid, or to the category of aromatic compounds (phenylpropene), which are usually produced in the biosynthetic pathway of shikimic acid.[3]
Essential oils are in liquid form at room temperature, but become volatile at boiling temperatures (between 50 – 320 ºC). Due to their volatility they have a characteristic aroma.
