Abstrakt: Bittersweet (Solanum dulcamara L.) and black nightshade (Solanum nigrum L.), both members of the Solanaceae family, are wild growing medicinal plants occurring in different regions of Bulgaria. The aim of this study was to compare the chemical composition (identified by GC-MS) and, respectively, the sensory properties of the concentrated aromatic products (resinoids) obtained by extraction with ethanol from the fruits and the leaves of the plants. The resinoids were light brown (from fruits) or green (from leaves) viscous masses with a specific odor. The main compounds in all resinoids were carbohydrates (52.63-89.99% of the identified compounds), followed by organic, fatty and amino acids. The results from the study provide arguments that the resinoids obtained from bittersweet and black nightshade fruits and leaves could be regarded as possible bioactive components for incorporation in different cosmetic products.
