cinnamic aldehyde

Company) have found that cinnamic aldehyde, when used in Big Red, prevented oral bacterial growth by more than 50%.

Cinnamaldehyde (cinnamic aldehyde) is a common fragrance allergen.

Recent research documents anticancer activity of cinnamaldehyde/cinnamic aldehyde observed in cell culture and animal models of the disease.

While this is controversial, allergens such as nickel, Balsam of Peru, parabens, sodium benzoate or cinnamic aldehyde may worsen or cause skin rashes.

Malic acid can be used for apple flavor, allyl hexanoate for pineapple, ethyl propionate for fruit punch, cinnamic aldehyde for cinnamon and acetophenone for cherry.

The bark is the source of a spice (also called cinnamon) and contains cinnamic aldehyde, an oil that is extracted and used as a flavoring, in medicine, and in perfume.

The bark of Cinnamomum oliveri contains tannin, also an essential oil, rich in camphor, safrole and methyleugenol or cinnamic aldehyde and eugenol depending on the chemical variety of the species.

Pharmacological experiments suggest that dietary cinnamon-derived cinnamic aldehyde (cinnamaldehyde) activates the Nrf2-dependent antioxidant response in human epithelial colon cells and may therefore represent an experimental chemopreventive dietary factor targeting colorectal carcinogenesis.

The patent says that the flavoring agents could include menthol, vanillin, cocoa, licorice and cinnamic aldehyde and that "under normal puffing conditions, the cigarette will deliver the flavor and taste components for at least 7 minutes."

The pungent taste and scent come from cinnamic aldehyde or cinnamaldehyde (about 90% of the essential oil from the bark) and, by reaction with of oxygen as it ages, it darkens in colour and forms resinous compounds.
