Controlled Product

CAS: 122-78-1

Phenylacetaldehyde is a natural chemical compound that is produced by the oxidation of phenylalanine. It is used in the food industry as an additive and flavoring agent. Phenylacetaldehyde has been shown to induce caspase-independent cell death through its ability to inhibit mitochondrial membrane potential, which triggers an increase in reactive oxygen species. The reaction mechanism of phenylacetaldehyde with benzoate also needs to be studied further.
