  • Applications

    Juniperol (CAS 465-24-7) is often referenced in literature and vendor catalogs as a juniper-associated terpenoid alcohol; in practice it is used primarily for its clean woody–pine/juniper aroma in perfumery, flavors, and personal-care products; as a flavor modifier to impart “gin/juniper” notes in beverages and flavored foods; as an analytical reference/standard for profiling juniper essential oils and verifying botanical provenance; as a test article in bioactivity studies (antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory) and in research on transdermal delivery, microencapsulation, and stabilization; as a component or intermediate in insect-repellent sprays, deodorizers, and pine-scented cleaners; and for academic purposes in olfactory modeling, sensory experiments, and simulations of interactions with proteins/lipid membranes; specific uses depend on supplier, grade, and regulations (e.g., IFRA, food-use limits), so users should review the SDS, purity specifications, stability data, and storage conditions before deployment.
