零陵罗勒(Ocimum sanctum)是印度产的一种香料植物,其中一种生态型的油分中丁香酚的含量颇高。目前,丁香酚是从进口的丁香叶油和肉桂皮油提取的,零陵罗勒油可成为丁香酚的新来源。笔者以前的研究已经证明,丁香酚是零陵罗勒油的主要成分。本文就零陵罗勒整个生长期的茎叶产量、含油量和与丁香酚含量有关的油成分进行比较,以鉴定零陵罗勒在工业利用上的可能性。 Ocimum sanctum is a spice plant produced in India where an ecotype oil contains a high content of eugenol. At present, eugenol is extracted from imported clove leaf oil and cinnamon oil, and Ling Ling basil oil can be a new source of eugenol. The author’s previous studies have shown that eugenol is the main component of the oleanolic oil. In this paper, the yield and oil content of stems and leaves, oil content and eugenol content of oil content in the whole growing period of Lingling were compared in order to identify the possibility of utilization of Lingling basil in industry.
