| Description | Olibanum is a gum resin secreted by several Boswellia speciesthat grow extensively from South Arabia to Somaliland. The smalltrees or shrubs yield an exudate after incisions are made on thebark; it consists of a milky liquid that hardens into small, yellowishdroplets commercially known as incense tears. The tears aresorted; the most valuable quality (white tears) is sold as burningincense, while the less valuable qualities (powder and fragments)are used in flavors and perfumes because of their more reasonablecost. The part used is the gum resin exudate. |
| Chemical Properties | The oil, obtained by steam distillation of the trees B. carterii Birdw. and other Boswellia species, has a balsamic,slightly citrine odor. |
| Chemical Properties | Olibanum oil and olibanum resinoid are obtained from frankincense, whichis a gum resin collected from the bark of the tree Boswellia carteri Birdw. orBoswellia frereana Birdw. (Burseraceae) growing in Arabia and Somalia. Theresinoid is produced by solvent extraction, and steam distillation gives the oil,which is a pale yellow, slightly viscous liquid with a balsamic odor and a faintlemon note. d2525 0.862–0.889; n20D 1.4650–1.4820; α20D ?15 ° to +35 °; solubility: 1 vol in 6 volof 90% ethanol, solutions occasionally opalescent; acid number: max. 4.0; ester number: 4–40. Various qualities are commercially available. Their compositions may vary considerablybecause they are prepared from the resins of different Boswellia species.Main constituents of the oil are monoterpene hydrocarbons. Olibanumoil and resinoid are used in oriental-type perfumes, the resinoid especiallyfor its good fixative properties. |
| Physical properties | It is a pale-yellow liquid. It is soluble in most fixed oils and with a slight haze in mineral oil. Itis insoluble in propylene glycol and glycerin. |
| Uses | frankincense (Boswellia thurifera) is described as anti-inflammatory and a mild antiseptic that brings relief to dry and sensitive skins and helps heal all types of wounds.
