Notes:
Capillary SFC was applied to the analysis of Some plant volatile oils. The results were compared with those obtained by capillary GC. For thyme oil, SFC without derivatization gave about the same percentage composition of the main compounds as CGC with silylation, thus eliminating one working step. For a complex mixture of peppermint oil or basil oil, SFC seems to give more reliable quantification than CGC, especially for oxygenated compounds. However, the separation efficiency of CGC for monoterpene hydrocarbons was, as expected, much better than that of SFC.
