What is (-)-PERILLYL ALCOHOL?
Description
(–)-Perillyl alcohol is a monoterpene alcohol that has been found in lavender essential oil and has diverse biological activities. It reduces production of hydroperoxidienes and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) in vitro in a concentration-dependent manner. (–)-Perillyl alcohol inhibits PANC-1 pancreatic carcinoma cell and H-Ras-transformed fibroblast growth when used at a concentration of 1 mM. It also inhibits the growth of P. aeruginosa, E. coli, S. aureus, and C. albicans (MICs = 480-2,900 ppm).
The Uses of (-)-PERILLYL ALCOHOL
