The article presents a case involving an appearance of an atypical 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) in the form of nitrate on the illicit drug market. This compound can be identified only by using such analytical methods as capillary electrophoresis (CE) or scanning electron microscopy (SEM), which are not routinely applied to forensic analyses of this type of substances. Therefore, particular caution should be exercised whenever a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method unambiguously identifies a substance, yet infrared spectroscopy fails to confirm this result.

ABSTRACTIn studies of the materials of old master paintings, the characterization of thin and degraded layers often presents unusual challenges for routinely used methods of analysis. This paper discusses analyses performed as part of a study of the materials and techniques of Pontormo's “Portrait of Alessandro de’ Medici” (1534–5) carried out during a recent cleaning and restoration of the painting. Pontormo built up the portrait using a complex sequence of preparation, drawing and paint layers, the analysis of which was complicated further in some areas by the presence of degraded materials on the paint surface. The materials used for the various stages of preparation and painting were characterized by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GCMS), Fourier transform infrared microspectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS). The focus of this paper will be the particular approaches taken to the characterization of the preparation layers and degraded surface materials.

Essential oils (EO, 15 collective samples and 47 individual samples) of Thymbra capitata collected from Moroccan Western Rif were analyzed using gas chromatography (GC) in combination with retention indices (RI), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-SM) and 13C NMR spectroscopy. Twenty components were identified. Carvacrol (68.2%–85.9 %) was by far the major component of all the samples, while the content of thymol (0.1-0.3%) was very low. Other components present in appreciable amounts were γ-terpinene (up to 8.9%), p-cymene (up to 7.1%), linalool (up to 4.4%) and ( E)- β-caryophyllene (up to 4.1%). In contrast, the yield of EO varied drastically from sample to sample (0.5–3.7%). No correlation could be established between yield of EO and altitude, pH, chemical composition and granularity of the soil. Cultivation under controlled conditions is suggested to improve the quantitative characteristics of carvacrol-rich Moroccan T. capitata.

Essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation of leaves of two Nigerian species were analyzed for their constituents by gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The leaf oil of Ficus benjamina L. (Moraceae), collected during the day, contained high contents of α-pinene (13.9%), abietadiene (9.7%), cis-α-bisabolene (8.2%) and germacrene-D-4-ol (8.4%), while the night sample was dominated by germacrene-D-4-ol (31.5%), 1,10-di- epi-cubenol (8.8%) and hexahydrofarnesylacetone (8.3%). This could be a possible indication of differences in emissions of volatiles by F. benjamina during the day and night. The main compounds of Irvingia barteri Hook. f. (Irvingiaceae) were β-caryophyllene (17.0%), (E)-α-ionone (10.0%), geranial (7.6%), (E)-β-ionone (6.6%) and β-gurjunene (5.1%).

The essential oil composition from the aerial parts of Baccharoides lilacina (Dalzell & A. Gibson) M. R. Almeida was analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). A total of 41 compounds have been identified, representing 97.4% of the total oil. The main constituents were identified as β-caryophyllene (27.7%), epi-α-cadinol (25.1%), caryophyllene oxide (9.9%), α-muurolol (7.6%), α-cadinene (6.1%) and α-cadinol 4.5%). The oil was found to be rich in oxygenated sesquiterpenes (47.1%) and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (46.2%).

The goal of this study was to investigate the essential oil compositions of different parts (stem, leaf, flower and mixture) of Lavandula x intermedia in Bismil-Diyarbakır,Turkey. The chemical composition of essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation from fresh Lavandin samples were analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The results indicate the major components of the studied parts of lavandin was; linalool (24.97-2.52-43.86-39.43 %), linalyl acetate (3.,4-0.29-9.37-15.76 %), eucalyptol (33.81-43.81-18.47-12.08 %), camphor (13.12-15.91-8.72-9.21 %), endo-borneol (2.03-5.18-0.68-1.24 %) and alpha-terpineol (2.84-2.47-1.28-3.86 %) in essential oils of stem, leaf, flower and mixture parts of fresh lavandin respectively. It was understood that linalool and linalyl acetate level were the highest in flower and mix parts while eucalyptol, camphor and endo-borneol levels were the highest in stem and leaf parts of the plant.
