Abstract
Calamondin peel oil extract from two composite peel samples with hexan e were each analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (CC-MS), and 56 constituents were identified and quantified by GC peak area per cent values. All except 5 of these components had been identified prev iously in citrus juices or oils. Composition of the peel oil component s most resembled that reported earlier for kumquat, a member of the Fo rtunella species believed to be one of the parents of calamondin.
