Analysis of agarwood oil composition via preparative thin layer chromatography

Agarwood which is also known as Aquilaria is the most valuable wood in the world with higher prices and demands nowadays. The widely uses of agarwood in meditation field, essential oil production and etc makes agarwood one of the precious things on earth. The study was carried out to analysis compou...
