Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to isolated fractions of Chios mastic gum enriched in terpene monomers and oligomers and substantially free of poly-terpene polymers with a degree of polymerization greater than 8 and a molecular weight in the range from about 1,000 to about 100,000 as well as to a process for their preparation. The invention also relates to compositions comprising an isolated fraction of monomeric and oligomeric terpenes extracted and purified by reverse-phase chromatography and essentially free of polymers. The monomeric and oligomeric enriched terpenes fraction obtained from Chios mastic gum exhibits biological activities in cosmetic, nutraceutical, medical devices and pharmaceutical applications.
