The chemical composition of the hydro-distilled essential oil obtained from the flowering aerial parts of Vernonia albicans DC. (Asteraceae) was analyzed by gas chromatography equipped with a flame ionization detector (GC-FID) and gas chromatography coupled with a mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Thirty-nine compounds have been identified, representing 97.5% of the total oil. The major constituents were β-caryophyllene (34.3%), γ-amorphene (19.5%), 9-epi-β-caryophyllene (6.9%), and α-pinene (6.9%). The oil was found to be rich in sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (73.9%).

The chemical constituents of essential oils obtained from resin and bark of Agathis borneensis were analysed using capillary gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC/MS). The resin essential oil dominated by α-pinene (30.93%), δ-limonene (17.79%), β-pinene (11.28%) and terpinen-4-ol (8.35%). The main components in the bark essential oil were β-pinene (8.68%), terpinen-4-ol (8.54%), α-pinene (8.50%) and α-terpineol (8.48%).

The hydro-distilled essential oil obtained from the roots of V. cinerea Less. (Asteraceae) was investigated by gas chromatography equipped with flame ionization detector (GC-FID) and gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Twenty-five constituents were identified, which represented 97.4% of the total oil. The major compounds were α-muurolene (30.7%), β-caryophyllene (9.6%), α-selinene (8.7%), cyperene (6.7%) and α-gurjunene (6.5%). The essential oil was dominated by sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (87.8%).
