**3. Conventional extraction methods**

Conventional extraction methods can have some drawbacks, such as the degradation of unsaturated compounds and loss of certain components. It is great to hear that there are ongoing efforts to improve and optimize extraction techniques and that these techniques are carefully chosen based on the plant organ and desired product quality. It is also important to note that the analytical composition of EOs can vary depending on the extraction technique used and that factors such as distillation duration, temperature, operating pressure, and raw plant material quality can all influence EO yield [11].
