Volatile constituents of the seeds, roots and dried non-flowering aerial parts of Lepidium sativum L. collected after hydrolysis were analyzed by GC and GC/MS. The main volatile constituents of the seeds were phenylacetonitrile (52.9%), benzyl isothiocyanate (26.2%) and 1,8-cineole (12.3%), while the main volatile constituents of the roots and the non-flowering aerial parts were benzyl isothiocyanate(65.0% and 24.5%), alpha-pinene (11.8% and 13.9%) and hexadecanoic acid (9.1% and 18.0%), respectively.
