ABSTRACT Escuela de Química
Secondary volatile metabolites from geranium (Pelargonium graveolens), at different Universidad Industrial de Santander
harvesting times, were isolated using two extraction techniques: simultaneous
distillation-solvent extraction (SDE) and microwave-assisted hydrodistillation ELENA E. STASHENKO
(MWHD). The chemical composition of volatile fractions was determinated by gas Química, Ph. D.,
chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS, EI, 70 eV). The main Profesora Titular
components identified were citronellol, geraniol, isomenthone, citronellyl formate and Escuela de Química
cis- and trans- rose oxide. Universidad Industrial de Santander
