1. Chemical analysis of MPM containing essential oils. Herbs and MPM that contain monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes

2. Volatile oils (VO) are miscellaneous volatile organic compounds which are produced in plants and cause their specific odour  They differ entirely in both chemical and physical properties from fixed oils. VO can be distilled from their natural sources; they do not consist of glyceryl esters of fatty acids. Hence, they do not leave a permanent grease spot on paper. VO do not become rancid as do the fixed oils, but instead, on exposure to light and air, they oxidize and resinify.

3. VO can be divided into 3 main groups:  monoterpenoids (acyclic, monocyclic and bicyclic);  sesquiterpenoids (acyclic, monocyclic, bicyclic, tricyclic);  aromatic compounds (derivatives of n-cimen, benzol and phenilpropan).

14. Occurrence Essential oils are of wide occurrence in Nature. More than 2500 of plants can accumulate them. Tropical plants are rich in VO. Usually they occur in such families as Lamiaceae, Apiaceae, Asteraceae and Rosaceae. The content may rich up to 20% (Citrus fruits). Ether oils are produced by special exo- and endogenic organs.

15. Glands (fam. Lamiaceae) Essential oil reservoir (Eucalyptus globulus) Essential oil cells (Acoruc calamus) Glands (fam. Asteraceae) Essential oil tubes (ducts) (Foeniculum vulgare)

16. Methods of obtaining of volatile oils 1.Distillation in water and steam 2.Scarification and expression (pressing) 3.Extraction with solvents (Extraction with volatile solvents and the enfleurage) 4.Enzymatic hydrolysis

17. Clavenger apparatus (according to Sovet pharmacopeia XI) 1.A round bottom pyrex distillation 2.A receiver (trap) 3.A cork 4.A condenser (according to WHO, EuPh\ Xylen
