Abstract: The chemical components of agarwood were reviewed, included volatile oil, 2-(2-phenylethyl)chromone and triterpenoids. The modern analytical technologies of the agarwood quality detection and authenticity assessment were described, such as thin-layer chromatography(TLC), ultraviolet spectrum(UV), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS), high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC), X-ray diffraction(XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR), near infrared spectroscopy(NIR), electronic nose analyzer and molecular biological technique. The applicability and characteristics of various agarwood analytical methods were compared, which provided the reference for the stablishment of quality standard and industry development of agarwood.

Key words: agarwood, chemical component, authenticity, authenticity assessment technology
