Abstract: Three brands of commercially available garlic oils and garlic oil extracted by two-stage molecular distillation were comparatively studied for their chemical composition by means of GC-MS analysis, computer-aided searching and contrast with the standard mass spectra. The garlic oil extracted by two-stage molecular distillation mainly consisted of diallyl sulfide, diallyl disulfide, methyl disulfide, 2-propene-1-sulfinothioic acid-5-p ropenyl ester and trisulfide. Neither cyclic disulfide nor tetra-sulfide, however, was found in it.

Key words: garlic oil, GC-MS, molecular distillation, constituent
