Özet

Liquidambar orientalis Miller (Anatolian Sweetgum Tree; Hamamelidaceae), also called Anatolian sığla (sweetgum), is ecologically and economically important relict endemic species which primarily is utilized for its balsam which is used mainly in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries. The wood of that tree is used for secondary purposes rather than oil. The oils of sweetgum are also known as storax that is produced from pathological wound channels. The resin of L. orientalis is used as a topical parasiticide, expectorant, antiseptic, and for stomach ache, asthma bronchitis, skin diseases, etc.. Many pharmacological activity studies of sweetgum oil for these uses have been identifed in the literature. Also, the chemical content of oil was elaborated by different chromatographic methods
