Abstract
In Algeria (North Africa) clove is widely used by traditional practitioners in phytotherapy for these different therapeutic properties, even if this plant is not native to North Africa. The objective of the present work is to develop a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) separation of compounds from clove essential oil (Syzygium aromaticum) The results showed that the essential oil mainly contained about eugenol (80.00 %) followed by eugenyl acetate (5.01 %) and β-caryophyllene (2.9 %).
