Standards and Specifications Essential Oil Association of the U.S.A., Inc

In 1946 the Scientific Committee began the compilation of a set of monographs embodying the EOA standards for essential oils, aromatic chemicals and isolates, and related flavor and perfume materials. Approximately 300 of these have now been completed. They have been prepared by the scientific representative of the member companies, based on the analyticaI data and experience of their laboratories. They are intended to define realistically standard good quality material currently avaiIable commercially, and should provide fair standards for the evaluation of these materials in commercial transactions.

Material Study: The Use of Essential Oils and Terpenics/Terpenoids in Cosmetics and Perfumery

Technological forecasting is extremely valuable for companies and governments because it allows them to foresee future situations and environments. Currently, cosmetic and perfumery companies are investing in bioprospective research to fi nd new compounds to synthesize new lead products.

New Constituents in Olibanum Resinoid and Essential Oil

Olibanum, or frankincense, a well appreciated perfume raw material, is a gum-resin produced by wild small trees growing in Arabia and Somaliland. This gum-resin results either from natural exudation or from unnatural incisions made in the bark of the tree. The gums from Arabia and Somalihind converge to Aden, the main trade place for olibanum; these gums usually result from two species of the genus Boswellia (fam. Burseraceae): Boswellia carterii Bird, (Arabia and Somaliland) and Boswellia frereana Bird. (Somaliland).

Chemistry/Technology Section Synthesis and Substitutes for Essential Oils

This begins a partial listing of the abstracts of papers tentatively schedulad to be presented at the 9th International Congress of Essential Oils. The balance of the abstracts will be published in our report issue of April/May Perfumer & Flavorist.

The history of lavender oil: Disturbing inferences for the future of essential oils

Whether the user industries will think it worth supporting the production of pure essential oils, this writer cannot tell. Where new sources are concerned it will involve taking up the limited output of the early years while the project grows. But if every user leaves this for someone else to do, it is not difficult to predict the degradation and disappearance of oils that are as good and plentiful today as true lavender was fifty years ago.

Progress in Essential Oils: Silver Fir or Abies alba oil

This month's column discusses the chemical composition of silver fir oil.

Natural Essential Oils: Current Trends in Production, Marketing and Demand

The foregoing analysis is of course in no way meant to be exhaustive, but is intended to illustrate that, although the picture is uneven, in many respects existing and potential producers of natural essential oils are faced with an uphill struggle in the years ahead. Increasingly it will be of paramount importance for producers, especially those about to enter the market for the first time, or those attempting to produce familiar oils in untried locations, to maintain very close liaison with interested buyers at all stages of their production plans.

The Australian and New Zealand Market for Essential Oils and Aroma Materials

The future for our industry could be phenomenal throughout the region. All we require is the persistence of established producers to recognize the benefits of producing essential oils in Australia and New Zealand.

Plant equipment for the production of essential oils and aroma chemicals

The flood of information from the literature and the widespread use of advanced analytical instruments have stimulate d the organic chemist to synthesize not only these products occurring in nature but many other useful and interesting homologues.

New Technologies For The High-Speed Characterization and Analysis Of Essential Oils

Dramatic reductions in characterization and analysis times for essential oils were achieved using high speed gas chromatography (HSGC) and time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOFMS). High-speed separations were achieved with relatively short capillary separation columns operated with high carrier-gas flow rates and fast temperature programming. Unique features of TOFMS include high spectral acquisition rates and spectral continuity (constant ion-abundance ratios across chromatographic peak profile).

EFEO: The New Voice For Essential Oils and Related Products Facing

Part One. I am an old fashioned guy. I want to smell eau de cologne made with natural bergamot oil. I want to smell the fragrance of citrus or lavender oils in my cleansing agents.

Aroma Chemicals and Citrus Oils

Natural citrus oils cannot be reconstituted (substituted) by compounding aroma chemicals for three reasons: (1) Citrus oils are complex mixtures, up to 300 chemicals of which many are unknown. (2) If they are known, many are not commercially available. (3) Individual constituents with asymmetric carbon atoms, mostly are optically active, A lot of aroma chemicals are not. On the other hand, aroma chemicals with citrusy odors deserve their own place for compounds in functional perfumery, mainly for stability reasons.

Bulgarian Lavender and Bulgarian Lavender Oil

In spite of the high production costs and the severe competition on the part of some other farm products (such as maize, corn, grapes, tomatoes and other fruits and vegetables), Bulgaria succeeded in preserving unchanged one of its national symbols, the Bulgarian Rose Oil. It has been preserved thanks to age-old traditions, to strict observation of the technology, persistent and careful quality control, the Government’s concern and the extremely high international praise for the oil.

Essential Oils and Aroma Chemicals from Eucalyptus Globulus Labill.

Eucalyptus globulus Labill., which is used in Spain for cellulose and paper production, is grown under an integrated reforestation program. In addition to its importance in the pulp and paper industry, the leaves of E. globulus are used to produce an important essential oil from which 1,8-cineole is isolated. Essential oils can also be obtained from the flowers and fruits of this same tree. Commercial amounts of a resinoid absolute are also obtained from the leaves.
