Abstract: The volatile oil extracted from Alpinia officinarum growing in 12 localities of Hainan was analyzed by using GC-MS fingerprinting,and 20 characteristic peaks selected from the GC-MS fingerprints were evaluated in terms of similarity. The results showed that the volatile oil extracted from A. officinarum sampled from different localities in Hainan had similar quality. The yield and main constituents of the volatile oil extracted from A. officinarum in different localities of Hainan were compared with those in Xuwen,Guangdong at similar ages and harvest time,and no significant difference was observed. Moreover,the GC-MS fingerprints of the volatile oil extracted from A. officinarum in Hainan shared a 0. 956 similarity with those in Guangdong. Therefore,the volatile oil extracted from A. officinarum growing in Hainan can be a substitute for that in Xuwen,Guangdong in food and spice.
