The essential oil of the herb Nepeta cataria L. var. citriodora was obtained by hydrodistillation in Dean-Stark apparatus and by steam distillation. The chemical composition of the oil was determined by GC-MS. Two different GC oven temperature programs were tested. The main constituents of all the samples studied were the monoterpene alcohols (R)-(+)-β-citronellol and geraniol. The largest amounts of monoterpene aldehydes (geranial and neral) were found in the hydrodistilled oil. α-Amyrin (a precursor of ursolic acid) was also detected in the oil. trans-Rose oxide, α-terpineol, geranic acid, and trace amount of rose-oxide were found in the steam distilled oil only.
Doświadczenia polowe przeprowadzono w Stacji doświadczalnej Akademii Rolniczej w Szczecinie. Zróżnicowany poziom uwilgotnienia gleby wpłynął istotnie na plonowanie szpinaku nowozelandzkiego. Zawartość azotu w roślinach była zależna od części rośliny. Ulistnione wierzchołki pędów powyżej 15 cm, zawierały istotnie więcej suchej masy, azotu ogólnego, białka, azotanów i azotynów niż same liście.

The field experiment was carried out in the Experimental Station of Agricultural University of Szczecin in 2003. Different levels of soil hydratation did not have a significant effect on the yielding of New Zealand spinach. The content of nitrogen compounds in the plants was significantly dependant on the usable parts of spinach plant. It was proved that stems with leaves up to 15 cm in length contained significantly more dry matter, total nitrogen, total protein, nitrates and nitrites than leaf blades alone.
