Product Information

• Name: trans-Anethole
• Synonyms: 1-Methoxy-4-[(1E)-1-propenyl]benzenetrans-1-p-Anisylpropene
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Trans-Anethole is a natural phenolic compound that is used in the synthesis of eugenol and vanillin. It can be extracted from plants such as anise, star anise, fennel, and dill. Trans-anethole has been shown to inhibit the activity of enzymes such as p-hydroxybenzoic acid oxidase, which are involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics in human cells. Studies have shown that trans-anethole has a physiological effect on the immune system by activating toll-like receptors (TLR) through which it induces cellular responses against pathogens. Trans-Anethole also has toxicological properties that have been studied using a model system and experimental models.
