Abstract
In this study, essential oils were extracted from Thyme and Star aniseusing Clevenger method. Oil yield extracted were 2.4% and 4.5% respectively. The physical propertiesof extracted oils have been studied. Refractive index values for essential oils were 1.4952 and 1.5584 respectively. Colors of extracted essential oils were yellow gold and pale yellow respectively, and the taste of Thymeoil was hot burning and the taste of Star aniseoil was sweet,as essential oils were dissolved into alcohol and did not dissolve in water.
