Effect of Drying Methods on the Composition Volatile of Compounds of Thyme (Thymus sipyleus Boiss. var. sipyleus)
Abstract
Drying is an important application for aromatic
plants and showed variations regard to plant material and drying methods. In
this study, aerial parts of Thymus
sipyleus Boiss.var.sipyleus were
dried with four different drying methods (Air-dried, Microwave, Freeze-drying,
oven drying at 50-70 oC.) and extracted with Simultaneous
Distillation-Extraction (SDE) to determine the volatile compounds. Citronellol,
1,8-cineol, camphor camphene and myrcene were found to be the dominant
compounds in all samples. The amount of citronellol increased with drying to
22,7% where this amount was 17,9% in the fresh samples. Thymol was ranging
between 0,35-3,80% with different drying methods. Drying procedure decreases
(3-5%) the amount of monoterpene hydrocarbons. However, alcohol forms of these
compounds were increased (1-6%). Air-drying and 50 oC oven-drying
can be suitable methods for drying of this species.
