Abstract | Cuscuta campestris, a holoparasitic plant reliant on host plants for sustenance, has been reported to harbor medicinally active phytochemicals. This study is aimed to evaluate the phytochemical profile, particularly VOCs, of C. campestris through gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Fresh and dried samples of twiners of C. campestris were analyzed using GC and GC-MS techniques. The results revealed notable differences in the profiles of volatile compounds between fresh and dried samples. The fresh samples showed minimal detection in GC-FID analysis while, GC-MS detected three compounds. Dried and powdered samples exhibited a more elaborate profile, with GC-FID detecting 29 peaks and GC-MS identifying 18 significant compounds, including hexanal, heptanone, and caryophyllene. The study highlights the importance of VOCs in C. campestris, for standardization of plant material for medicinal and industrial applications. A reproducible analytical method for standardizing medicinal plant material based on fingerprints of volatiles is developed. This approach can aid in assessing plant quality and understanding the impact of environmental factors on the composition of volatiles. Furthermore, the variation in VOC profiles can indicate potential influence due to the host plant and environmental factors. This work provides a foundation for further investigations into phytochemical variations in medicinal plant materials using fingerprints of volatiles. |
