It's used to ensure the potency and consistent quality of a batch of oil. This method identifies the structural components of essential oil compounds. And the quality is estd. referring to a pure quality historical database.
Chirality
Right-to-Left Handedness
This test ensures that no synthetic elements are present in the essential oil. It determines the 3D orientation of a molecule. Chiral molecules exist in 2-forms like our right & left hand, where their ratio determines the purity of oil.
Isotopes
Carbon Isotopic Analysis
It is used to detect the essential oil purity by determining the ratio of carbon atom isotopes, as to which isotopes are present in what amounts. Every constituent in the oil should have same ratio of isotopes to determine purity.
