Abstract

This study aims to provide a systematic overview and meta-analysis research on the patchouli plant and its mass application in numerous industries. This research has significance in presenting current research issues and the miscellaneous potential of Pogostemon cablin from the Web of Science (WOS) database. Co-citation and co-word analysis were adopted to identify and map the research landscape of the main topics in the literature system. The study was carried out with the number of publications retrieved about the predetermined subjects totalling 400 documents from 1970-2024. Four main clusters were created for each analysis respectively. Themes of bioactivity that deal with actual biological consequences and metabolic pathways are becoming more prevalent. The findings of this evaluation can be coordinated for emerging topics in engineered application of patchouli and sustainable green technology.
