Abstract
The hydrodistilled oil obtained from plant umbels (Daucus carota L. ssp. carota) harvested in the wild was investigated by GC and GC/MS. One hundred components have been identified. The fraction of monoterpene hydrocarbons represented 83.8%, oxygenated monoterpenes represented 8.0% of the whole oil, whereas the sesquiterpene fraction represented 7.4% and other compounds 0.2% of the total composition. The most abundant constituents were α-pinene (41%), sabinene (18%), myrcene (7%), limonene (5%) and terpinen-4-ol (5%).
