Abstract Despite studies on apiaceous fruits flavor makeup, there is no much known regarding aerial parts aroma. Five major apiaceae crops viz., anise, caraway, celery, dill, and fennel were analyzed to identify their volatile via GC-MS of aerial parts essential oils (Eos) to reveal 56 volatiles. The most predominant were limonene, cymene, phellandrene, myrecen, anethole, estragole, and germacrene D. The fresh aerial parts were analyzed via headspace solid-phase microextraction, within identified 47 volatiles the largest proportion of them is oxygenated monoterpens due to anethole and estragole. Furthermore, Sylilated aerial parts were analyzed to identify the primary metabolites for the five plants to reveal 58 constitutes. Sugar and sugar alcohol represented the high percentage in all specimens because of mannose, glucose, arabitol, and mannitol high level responsible for the sweet taste. Anti- tuberculosis was applied for the five plants and gave interesting results for celery, dill, and fennel by MIC 0.98, 1.95, and 3.9 respectively. |
