Product Description: Veratraldehyde is an orally active aromatic compound and antibacterial agent. Veratraldehyde can be isolated from essential oils of plants such as peppermint and ginger. Veratraldehyde targets the PilY1 protein. Veratraldehyde has antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Veratraldehyde has a repellent effect against mosquitoes and ticks. Veratraldehyde can be used as a flavoring agent[1][2][3][4][5][6][7].
Formula: C9H10O3
