Abstract

Ginger essential oil is one of the valuable essential oils due to its antiemetic, anti-motion sickness, antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, the chemical components of ginger essential oils from the rhizome of Zingiber officiale Roscoe cultivated in Phu Yen and Binh Duong Provinces were first published. The optimal hydrodistillation parameters including extraction time (06 hours) and the ratio of material: water (1:3, g/ml) were reported. The chemical composition of the oil analysed by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) method indicated that zingiberene, α-farnesene, geranial, sesquisabinene, neral, camphene, β-bisabolene were the main components.
