  1. a(apparent abundance) = A139–220 min/A0–139 min. The ratio of sum peak area in the range of 139–220 min range of individual agarwood and that in the range of 0–139 min.
  2. bColour reaction value assignment: Purple = 4, dark cherry red = 3, cherry red = 2, pale cherry red = 1, other colour = 0.
  3. cDZYC: agarwood reference drug.
