CSP = C. scolymus L. petal; CSc = C. scolymus L. choke; CSH = C. scolymus L. heart; t = trace (<0.05%). RtLit = retention time from the literature (Adams, 2007). RtP = determined retention time of C. scolymus petal; RtC = determined retention time of C. scolymus choke; RtH = determined retention time of C. scolymus heart. aIdentification by the following: 1 = retention time (Rt) identical to literature (cf. exp. part); 2 = comparison of mass spectra (MS) with the library entries of mass spectra databases (cf. exp. part). Mean percentage is calculated from flame ionization detector (FID) data, compounds higher than 1.0% are highlighted in boldface, and their ±SD (n = 2) is mentioned.
