Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The free fatty acids in the oils were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (QP 2010 Plus, Shimadzu, Tokyo, Japan) in a device equipped with a Split/Splitless injector (AOC-5000, Shimadzu, Tokyo, Japan) with an automatic injector (model AOC-5000). A capillary column (100 m × 0.25 mm id × 0.20 μm df, SP-2560 Supelco, Bellefonte, USA) was used as a stationary phase, with helium as the carrier gas, at a flow rate of 1.59 mL/min. The samples were injected into an injector with a Split ratio of 1:40 and a temperature of 250 °C; the pressure in the column was 300 kPa.
The oven temperature and data treatment were applied similarly to the TFA analysis, however, this analysis considered peaks with an area ≥ 0.4 % in at least two of the three replicates of each sample.
The values ​​were shown as the percentage of the total area detected in the analysis. Since this study proposed a qualitative analysis of the free fatty acids, the values ​​were not normalized. Therefore, the actual mean values ​​detected during the analysis were shown.

Total lipid was extracted from 300 mg plant samples (fresh leaves) using chloroform–methanol–phosphate buffer (1:2:0.9 v/v/v, pH 7.5; 10 mL), and fatty acids were converted to corresponding methyl esters (FAMEs) by transmethylation. For transmethylation, 1 mL of NaOH (1% v/v in methanol) was added, and mixture was incubated at 55°C for 15 min, after that 2 mL of methanolic HCl (5% v/v) was added and further incubated at 55°C for 15 min. Finally 3 mL of deionized water–hexane mixture (1:2 v/v) was added. FAMEs were extracted in three times in hexane, samples were pooled together and dried under vacuum. Dried sample was resuspended in 200 μl hexane and analyzed by using a RTX 5MS capillary column in GCMS-QP2010 (Shimadzu, Japan) coupled with an auto-sampler (AOC-5000) [6 ].

GC and GC/MS analysis were performed through flame ionization detector (FID) on Shimadzu GC 2010 gas chromatograph and QP2010 (Shimadzu Corp., Tokyo, Japan) fitted with an AOC 5000 auto-injector. The auto-injector comprises of 30 m long ZB-5 MS capillary column with 0.25 mm i.d. and 0.25 μm thick film (SGE International, Ringwood, Australia). Ten μL of EO was dissolved in 2 mL of dichloromethane with 2μL auto-injection volume in split mode. Carrier gas (nitrogen) with 1.05 mL min-1 flow rate; oven temperature of 70 °C for 3 min and afterwards to 220 °C for 5 min at the rate of 4 °C min-1 and injector and detector temperature was programmed at 220 °C and 250 °C, respectively. The temperature programming, injection volume, and carrier gas conditions utilized for performing GC and GC/MS were as per the procedure mentioned in German chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla L.)60 (link). For identification and recognition of compounds, a series of hydrocarbons was utilized for retention index (RI) estimation (Table 2). The EO components were identified through harmonizing the experimental RIs with the reported RIs in literature41 (link),61 . The components were also identified by matching the minimum mass spectral fragmentation pattern of the components with the NIST library62 .

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
