==Chemical Composition==
Seed contains anthraquinoneslemon grass oil are nerol,namely; (aurantio-obtusinlimonene, chryso-obtusin,obtusin, chrysoobtusin-2-O-beta-glucoside,physcion,emodin,chrysophanol,obtusifolin,obtusifolin-2-O-linalool and beta-D-glucoside, alaternin 2-O-β-Dglucopyranoside)15, brassinosteroids(brassinolide, castasterone, typhasterol,teasterone, and 28-norcastasterone), andmonoglycerides (monopalmitin andmonoolein)16caryphyllene. Phenolic glycosides such asrubrofusarin triglucosideThe content of myrcene is low, nor-rubrofusaringentiobioside, demethylflavasperonegentiobioside, torachrysone gentiobioside,torachrysone tetraglucoside and torachrysoneapioglucoside were also isolated 17but still enough to make the oil susceptible to oxidative polymerization<ref name="chemical composition"/>
