Effects of postharvest treatments on yield and composition of coriander herb oil.

The effects of the postharvest treatments of chopping and storage on the yield and composition of coriander herb oils from pilot-scale steam distillations are reported. Chopping the plant material gave an average 10.4 L/ha increase in oil yield. The oil composition is also changed by chopping and storage. The relative levels of the aldehydes [(E)-2-decenal is the major one] fall and the relative levels of alcohols rise with increased time of storage. However, oil yields drop after storage for more than 4 h. Small-scale solvent extracts confirmed these results.
