Resumen
Esta investigación estudió el aceite esencial de la planta Tagetes elliptica (chinche), que se encuentra en los valles del Perú Andino y la selva alta. El aceite esencial se extrae principalmente de las hojas y tallos jóvenes y tiene aplicaciones medicinales. Se recolectó material fresco en Huaros, Canta, Lima, Perú. El estudio incluyó métodos de extracción, purificación cromatográfica y identificación espectroscópica. Se identificó el óxido de mirceno como el principal componente del aceite esencial. Además, se identificaron otros seis constituyentes. El análisis cualitativo mostró la presencia de varios metabolitos secundarios importantes.
