Comparison of supercritical fluid extraction and hydrodistillation method for determination of agarwood essential oil

Gaharu or agarwood is a tree in the family Thymelaeceae. Gaharu is the occasional product of two to four spesies in the family Thymelaeaceae. Mature trees will grow up to 40 meter in height and 40 centimeter in diameter. Gaharu trees in natural forests began to produce agarwood resin at the age of 2...
