TL;DR: A patchouli oil from Indonesia was analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively by GC (FID) and GC/MS as discussed by the authors, using different ionization techniques in mass spectrometry (EI, NCI and PCI with ammonia and deuterated ammonia as reagent gases).
Abstract: A patchouli oil from Indonesia was analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively by GC (FID) and GC/MS. Using different ionization techniques in mass spectrometry (EI, NCI and PCI with ammonia and deuterated ammonia as reagent gases), 41 compounds were separated, 28 of which (92.9% of the total oil) were identified. Four new compounds were found in this oil: γ-gurjunene (2.2%), germacrene D (0.2%), aciphyllene (3.4%) and 7-epi-α- selinene (0.2%).

TL;DR: In this article, a sesquiterpene synthase from patchouli plants (Pogostemon cablin) was described and methods of their production and use.
Abstract: The invention relates to sesquiterpene synthases from Patchouli plants (Pogostemon cablin), and methods of their production and use. In one embodiment, the invention provides nucleic acids comprising a nucleotide sequence as described herein that encodes for at least one sesquiterpene synthase. In a further embodiment, the invention also provides for sesquiterpene synthases and methods of making and using these enzymes. For example, sesquiterpene synthases of the invention may be used to convert farnesyl-pyrophosphate to various sesquiterpenes including patchoulol, Ϝ-curcumene and other germacrane-type sesquiterpenes.
