description:
steam distilled essential oil from dried rhizome of acorus calamus. Due to high asarone percentage this oil is useful in mental ailment (menon & dandya-1967), as an insecticide (mukergee & govind-1960), in ayurvedic system of indian medicines (nandkarni-1954), as an stimulant, emetic, nauseant, stomachic, aromatic, expectorant, carminative, antispasmodic, and nervine sedative. Due to its insecticidal activity it has been used in combination with neem oil, cedar wood oil as room sprayer against house hold insect. Its use has been restricted by ifra due to high percentage of asarone in indian calamus oil. A high concentrations (0.5%) of b-asarone have been shown to be positive in ames mutagenic test following activation (who-faz, 1981). Recently to enhance memory it is being used in a drug called megamind plus.

specific gravity at 25°c = 1.0700 to 1.80000
optical rotation = +3° to inactive
flash point = 127°c (closed cup method).
