WHY PURESOURCE GUM SPIRITS OF TURPENTINE IS DIFFERENT?
SOURCE MATTERS
Many gum spirits of turpentine products provide little information regarding:
• Pine species
• Geographic origin
• Terpene composition
• Analytical testing
For researchers investigating terpene chemistry, those details matter.
PINUS ELLIOTTII
PureSource Gum Spirits of Turpentine is derived from:
Pinus elliottii oleoresin
and sourced from Portugal.
This species is recognised for its characteristic α-pinene and
β-pinene profile.
STEAM DISTILLED
Our material is produced through traditional steam distillation of pine oleoresin.
• No petroleum-derived solvents
• No industrial rectification processes
• No added fragrance compounds
VERIFIED TERPENE PROFILE
Each batch is supplied with chromatographic analysis showing:
• α-Pinene: 45–50%
• β-Pinene: 35–40%
This provides researchers with meaningful compositional information rather than assumptions.
THE DOCUMENTATION GAP
One of the most recognised brands in this category is Diamond G.
However, researchers often have limited access to:
• Terpene profile data
• Chromatography results
• Batch-specific COAs
PureSource Research addresses this by publishing analytical information and maintaining batch traceability.
WHY TERPENE PROFILES MATTER
Published research has investigated α-pinene and β-pinene across areas including:
• Terpene chemistry
• Microbiology
• Materials science
• Plant biochemistry

DOCUMENTATION STANDARD
Every batch includes:
• Certificate of Analysis
• Batch traceability
• Supplier documentation
• Terpene profile verification
Researchers deserve to know what they are purchasing.
