53rd International Symposium on Essential Oils

The 53rd International Symposium on Essential Oils (ISEO 2023), will be held from Wednesday 13 to Saturday 16 September 2023 at the Trifiletti Theatre of Milazzo, (Messina, Italy).

The symposium has been organized annually in Europe since 1969 in order to stimulate cooperation among scientists for the advancement of research and development into the science of essential oils and their constituents. The Congress is bringing together all those scientists involved in essential oils and related natural products research, and offering unique opportunities for networking and discussion. Shimadzu is participating as a Gold sponsor with a booth showing the latest developments for analysis of essential oils and related natural products research. Meet the Shimadzu team and learn more about our analytical solutions. We are looking forward to seeing you soon!

New Method Packages

Check out the Method Packages for analysis of essential oils developed by Shimadzu, Merck, and Chromaleont:

1 Quantitative Analysis of Essential Oils – Science, Technology and Methods

Essential Oils are the complex mixture of chemical compounds produced by living organism and isolated by means of physical methods from a whole plant or plant part of know taxonomic origin. The composition of essential oils is mainly represented by monoterpene and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, and their oxygenated derivatives as well as aliphatic aldehydes, alcohols, and esters.

2 Quality Assessment of Essential Oils – from Plant Product Authentication to Product Adulteration Testing

Essential Oils are obtained from plant material by distillation procedures, and mainly consist of monoterpene and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, and their oxygenated derivatives as well as aliphatic aldehydes, alcohols, and esters. The commercial value of essential oils is continuously expanded due to the increasing demand from major end-use industries such as food & beverage, personal care & cosmetics, and aromatherapy. Regulatory standards require the quality assessment of essential oils in order to reveal counterfeit or adulterated products in commercial markets and prevent the illegal sale of plant products at prices greater than their commercial value

3 Profile evaluation of the non-volatile fraction of cold-pressed Citrus Essential Oils

Cold-pressed Citrus essential oils, namely lemon, bergamot, lime, grapefruit, mandarin, sweet and bitter orange are obtained from the peel of Citrus fruits and are normally used in food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries as ingredients. Oxygen heterocyclic compounds, i.e., coumarins, psoralens, and polymethoxyflavones, compose a small portion of the non-volatile fraction (10–20%) of Citrus essences. These compounds showed several biological effects on human health.
