Research Article - (2013) Volume 2, Issue 1
Nearly 350 Hypericum species exist on the earth, widely spreading in Europe, Asia and North Africa. 32 of 80 species growing in Turkey are endemic. The chemical composition of the essential oils obtained from the aerial parts of the H. uniglandulosum Hausskn. ex Bornm., H. scabroides Robson and Poulter, H. kotschyanum Boiss., H. salsugineum Robson and Hub.-Mor. and H. thymopsis Boiss. By using the hydro-distillation method is identified by GC and GC/ MS. Finally the results are compared with each other. The differences between the results of the H. thymopsis and H. scabroides obtained in this study and the previous studies show that the chemical compositions of the essential oils are different for the same species obtained at different locations. The essential oil compositions of these species, except for the H. thymopsis and H. scabroides are identified for the first time.
The article entitled “Composition of Essential Oils from Five Endemic Hypericum Species of Turkey”, has been accepted for publication in the Organic Chemistry: Current Research considering the findings provided in the article as original results from the group of investigators (authors), which was found not having any conflict or biasness towards either publication or related matters. As the article was a research article, information provided by the author was considered as original, unpublished and the group of investigators are willing to promote their findings through this publication. Publisher took decision to make the article online solely based on the reviewers suggestion which considered the article but not a personal opinion of the author.
Soon after publication of the paper in the Volume 2 Issue 1, the authors would like to retract the paper for their personal reasons. Therefore, the journal publisher disowns the paper from the Volume 2 Issue 1. Hereafter the content of the paper may not available online in any of the publisher’s websites or related weblinks.
The published article subjected to retraction in any of the following cases; work requires further experimental investigation or found any flaws in the methodologies and or for personal reasons of the authors.
