| Introduction | perillyl aldehyde (scientific name [4-isopropenyl-1-cyclohexenyl] Formaldehyde}, also known as dihydrocumin aldehyde, molecular formula C10H14O, is an optically active terpenoid with Cherry, fat and dry tea-like aroma, is the characteristic aroma component of natural perilla oil, exists in natural perilla oil, lotus Leaf Tung and fragrant lemon oil. |
| biological activity | Perillaldehyde (Perillal, PAE, PA) is Perilla frutescens (a traditional antioxidant) baP-induced AHR activation and ROS production, inhibition of BaP/AHR-mediated CCL2 chemokine release, and activation of the NRF2/HO1 antioxidant pathway. |
| Target | Value |
| Use | a monoterpene aldehyde, mainly found in Zisu, is the main volatile flavor compound of orange juice and citrus peel oil. |
| production method | perilla oil can be obtained from Perilla frutescens by steam distillation, and l-perillaldehyde can be obtained by rectification. |
