GARBARINO, JUAN A et al. VOLATILE COMPOUNDS OF LITHRAEA CAUSTICA (LITRE) DETERMINATED BY SOLID PHASE MICRO-EXTRACTION (SPME). Bol. Soc. Chil. Quím. [online]. 2002, vol.47, n.4, pp. 567-569. ISSN 0366-1644.  doi: 10.4067/S0366-16442002000400030.

The head space of the aerial parts of Lithraea caustica was analyzed by Solid Phase Micro-Extraction (SPME) technique, obtaining as main volatile compounds the monoterpenes, myrcene, a -pinene, , p-cymene and limonene, as well as the sesquiterpene caryophylene.
