    Effects of diurnal and ontogenetic variability on essential oil composition of oregano (Origanum vulgare var. hirtum)
    (ASIAN JOURNAL OF CHEMISTRY, 2008) Guemuescue, Ahmet; Ipek, Arif; Sarihan, Ercuement O.; Guerbuez, Bilal; Kaya, M. Demir; Arslan, Neset
    This study was carried out to determine the effects of diurnal and stage of harvesting on the essential oil components of oregano (Origanum vulgare var. hirtum). The samples were collected at three different stages of flowering (before and after flowering) and six different times (06:00, 09:00, 12:00, 15:00, 18:00 and 21:00 h) with drying under shade or sunshine. Essential oil was obtained by hydrodistillation method and analyzed with GC-MS. Results showed that the main compound of O. vulgare var. hirtum was thymol. The harvest stage affected the compounds of essential oil such that p-cymene increased at full flowering while gamma-terpinene decreased. Drying methods and harvesting time showed a minor effect on volatile compounds. The highest variation in composition of essential oil in relation to harvest stage was determined in p-cymene and gamma-terpinene. It was concluded that the harvest stage along with drying under shade should be firstly considered.

    Evaluation of selected poppy (Papaver somniferum L.) lines by their morphine and other alkaloids contents
    (SPRINGER, 2008) Guemuescue, Ahmet; Arslan, Neset; Sarihan, Ercument Osman
    The alkaloid analysis was performed in the laboratory of the alkaloid factory located at Bolvadin province of Turkey in 2000 on selected 99 poppy lines, which were selected with respect to their morphological and agronomic characteristics from around 1,000 poppy lines provided by Agriculture faculty, Ankara University. Our results showed that the ratio of the alkaloids, morphine, thebaine, codeine, papaverine and noscapine ranged from 0.110 to 1.140%, 0.005 to 0.134%, 0.005 to 0.27%, 0.001 to 0.440% and 0.006 to 0.418%, respectively, in the selected 99 poppy lines. According to their alkaloid content, 15 lines had significantly higher morphine, three lines had higher noscapine, and one line had higher papaverine levels.
