In this study, fatty acid compositions of apricot kernel oils for cosmetic purpose were analyzed. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of fatty acids in apricot kernel oils were made by using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). In this analysis, apricot kernel oils -which trademarked Karden, Organix and Biovitals- supplied from a herbalist were used. The oils were converted to the methyl ester with KOH hydrolysis. Just after the derivatization process, the oils were analyzed by GC-MS. In conclusion, it was determined that these apricot kernel oils which belong to three different trademarks have a similar fatty acid profile, however, there was no specific standard between...

Overexploitation of many traditional medicinal plants like Buchanania lanzan Spreng. has become a threat and shortly, many medicinal plants may be unavailable for use in the medicinal industry. The present study outlines the concept of plant part substitution. Stem bark and small branches of B. lanzan are compared based on physicochemical analysis, phytochemical analysis, total phenolic content, total flavonoid content and High-Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) to evaluate the possibilities of using small branches in place of stem bark. Results suggest that small branches of this plant may be recommended in place of its stem bark after comparison and confirmation of same for pharmacological activities. The study provides the base for further study to use small branches of B. lanzan Spreng. as a substitute for its stem...
