The essential oil isolated from the leaves and fruit peels of Mangifera indica L. by hydrodistillation was analyzed by combined GC and GC/MS. The leaves of M. indica were rich in sesquiterpenes (70.3%), while fruit peel oil consisted of very high amount of monoterpenes (83.2%). The dominant compounds in mango leaf oil were δ-3-carene (20.5%), α-gurjunene (19.2%), β-selinene (13.9%) and β-caryophyllene (13.7%), while fruit peel oil yielded mainly δ-3-carene (58.2%) and α-pinene (13.0%).
