Popis:	The chemical composition of the leaf/inflorescence oil of Seriphidium brevifolium (Wall.) Y. Ling et Y. R. Ling which was obtained from mature and immature plants collected in an inner valley of Kumaon Himalaya, was examined by GC/M S. Forty-six constituents were characterized in the “immature oil” and 63 constituents were identified in the “mature oil.” The main components of “immature oil” were α-thujone (77.0%), β-thujone (4.4%) and 1, 8-cineole (3.3%), while the “mature oil” possessed α-thujone (60.2%), β-thujone (5.5%) and 1, 8-cineole (1.5%). The reason for a preference for the use of the immature leaves/inflorescence as an incense over the mature leaves/inflorescence is thought to be due to the higher total thujone and 1,8-cineole content of the oil.
