ABSTRACT

An ethanolic extract at 50% obtained by maceration process was characterized by GC-MS using a Shimadzu QP2010 spectrometer and the Silylation agent was N,O-bis (trimethylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide (BSTFA). The compounds were analyzed using GC/MS NIST21 and NIST107 libraries and having into account the results obtained after phytochemical screening and comparing the results with NISTDEMO Software. After 78 minutes of running 859 chemical components were identified from the sample, and among them, the presence of five essential oils, six triterpenes and/or steroids, an anthracene derivative, six aminoacids or their derivatives, and one flavonoid were tentatively characterized. The sample also contains a lot of amount of reductants sugars and their derivatives, hydrocarbons, and aromatic and/or aliphatic acids (unsaturated and saturated).
