Applications of lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) essential oil
Lemongrass oil (Cymbopogon citrati aetheroleum) is steam distilled from the fresh or dried chopped parts of the native Indian plant: lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus). The essential oil content of lemongrass is approximately 0,1-1,0 %, its color varies between pale to ginger. It has a fresh scent, that resembles lemons. The characteristic scent of lemongrass comes from the citrals in it, which make up 65-85% of the oil. The citral component is actually two compounds: citral A (a.k.a. geranial) and citral B (a.k.a. neral). Besides these, limonene, citronellol and myrcene are important.
