    • I+/--Panasinsene
    • DTXSID201317652
  • Applications

    A natural sesquiterpene hydrocarbon (CAS 56633-28-4) reported in ginseng essential oil and other aromatic botanicals, I+/--Panasinsene is mainly used as a reference standard in GC-MS/GC-FID for identification, quantification, and authentication of botanical materials (notably Panax spp.), for tracking seasonal and processing-driven chemovariation, and for probing stereoisomeric distribution and terpenoid biosynthesis; it is also valuable for aroma profiling of natural ingredients, development of chemical markers for quality control, retention-index calibration, and building chemometric models in food/herbal/fragrance research, as well as a target compound to optimize extraction, microencapsulation, and stabilization workflows in flavor technology.
