MedKoo Cat#: 149220 | Name: Eucarvone

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Eucarvone is a naturally occurring monoterpene ketone found in the essential oils of various aromatic plants, such as Eucalyptus species. It is recognized for its pleasant scent and potential biological activities, including antimicrobial and insecticidal effects. The mechanism of eucarvone is believed to involve disruption of microbial cell membranes and interference with neurotransmission in insects. Applications of eucarvone are mainly in the fragrance industry, as well as in natural product research exploring its use in pest control and antimicrobial formulations.
