Matricaria Oil Usage And Synthesis
| Chemical Properties | Blue chamomile oil (German chamomile oil) is obtained by steam distillationof the flowers and stalks of Chamomilla recutita (L.) Rauschert (Matricariarecutita. L., Matricaria chamomilla L., Asteraceae). For oil production,chamomile is grown mainly in Eastern Europe (Hungary, Bulgaria) andEgypt. Few tons are produced annually. It is a deep blue or bluish-green liquid that turns green and, finally, brown when exposed to light andair. The oil has a strong, characteristic odor and a bitter, aromatic taste.Chamazulene is responsible for its blue color. Chamazulene and(?)-α-bisabolol contribute to the anti-inflammatory properties of blue chamomile oil.
d2020 0.910–0.970/0.910–0.950; chamazulene (2–5%)/(5–22%); bisabolol(1–10%)/(15–40%) (Egyptian/Hungarian oils). Blue chamomile oil isused preferentially in pharmaceutical preparations, but also in small quantitiesin flavoring of alcoholic beverages. |
| Chemical Properties | The essential oil is obtained by steam distillation of flowers and stalks with variable yields ranging from 0.3 to morethan 1%, depending on the area of production. It has a characteristic intensely sweet, herbaceous coumarin-like odor with a freshundernote. |
| Physical properties | It is a deep-blue or bluish-green liquid. When exposed to light or air, the blue color changesto green and finally to brown. Upon cooling, the oil may become viscous. It is soluble in most fixed oils and propylene glycols. It isinsoluble in glycerin and mineral oils. |
| Occurrence | Found in the plant Matricaria chamomilla L. (Fam. Compositae). |
| Uses | Chamomile Absolute is a flavor and fragrance agent. Chamomile Absolute exhibits similar biological functions like Apigenin (A726500) |
| Definition | Extractives and their physically modified derivatives. Matricaria chamomilla, Compositae. |
| Preparation | By steam distillation of the flowers and stalks of Matricaria chamomilla L. |
