Extraction of gaharu essential oil using microwave assisted extraction (MAE)

Gaharu or it scientific named Aquilaria malaccensis is one of the most precious trees in the world. It is one of the most expensive natural products existing today. Gaharu is also known as Agarwood, eaglewood, aloeswood, oud, chen-xiang, and jingkoh. Gaharu grade C from peninsular Malaysia was used...
