Recorded constituents
What analytical work has found in this species, at which plant part and preparation. A measured constituent is a fact about material, not about effect.
| Substance | Plant part | Preparation | Concentration | Analytical method | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-phenylethanone | Flowering top | Essential oil | ≤ 6.9 Percent | GC-MS | Resolve DOI |
| 1-phenylethanone | Flowering top | Essential oil | ≥ 3.8 Percent | GC-MS | Resolve DOI |
| Scopoletin | Flower | Solvent extraction | — | Unspecified | Resolve DOI |

Boundary
A constituent measurement is a fact about material at a stated preparation, not a statement about what that material does in a person. An adverse-effect or genotoxicity record is an observation reported in a source, most often in an animal or laboratory model. Neither is a Metatron Health conclusion about causality, human risk or benefit, and the absence of a record is not proof that a preparation is safe. Nothing here is diagnosis, prescribing or individual medical care.
