봉동산 생강(Zingiber officinale Roscoe)의 정유성분조성을 분석코자 액체 이산화탄소 주출법으로 분리하여 silica gel column chromatography범에 의해 탄화수소 화합물 분획과 함산소 화합물 분획으로 분류한 다음 GC 및 GC-MS로 성분을 검토하였다. 추출물의 수율은 6.96%이었으며, SCC에 의해 분리된 분획의 분석결과 mass spectrum에 의해서 잠정적으로 확인된 58종을 포함하여 102종의 향기성분이 확인되었다. 중 탄화수소 화합물 분획에서는 zingiberene, ${eta}-sesquiphellandrene,;{gamma}-bisabolene,;{gamma}-cadinene,;ar-curcumene$ 등이 주성분이었고, 함산소 화합물 분획에서는 gernal, sesquisabinene hydrate, borneol, zingiberenol 등이 주성분 이었다. 총 essential oil의 조성은 $zingiberene,;citronellol+{eta}-sesquiphellandrene,;geranial,;{gamma}-bisabolene,;ar-curcumene+geranyl;acetate$ 등이 주성분으로 sesquiterpene hydrocarbon의 함량이 높게 나타났다.
The essential oil of Korean ginger(Zingiber officinale Roscoe) was isolated by liquid carbon dioxide extraction method and fractionated into one hydrocarbon fraction and two oxygenated hydrocarbon fractions by using silica gel column chromatography. The compositions of the resulting oils were investigated by GC and GC-MS spectrometry. Out of 102 identified compounds, 44 were identified by comparing GC retention time and mass spectral data with authentic samples and 58 were tentatively identified according to mass spectral data only. The major compounds of hydrocarhon fraction were $zingiberene,;{eta}-sesquiphellandrene,;{gamma}-bisabolene,;{gamma}-cardinene,;ar-curcumene$, and those of oxygenated hydrocarbon fractions wee geranal, sesquisabinene hydrate, borneol and zingiberenol. The major compounds of ginger oil were zingiberene, $citronellol+{eta}-sesquiphellandrene,;geranial,;{gamma}-bisabolene;and;ar-curcumene+geranyl;acetate$, and ginger oil contained higher amounts of sesquiterpene hydrocarbons. The yield of extract was 6.96%.
