Description

Neryl acetate is a fatty acid that is used in the preparation of biological samples for analysis. It reacts with oxygenated lipids to form a hydrophobic layer, which separates the sample from water. Neryl acetate also has antifungal activity against Candida glabrata, due to its ability to inhibit the synthesis of ergosterol. In vitro experiments have shown that neryl acetate inhibits the growth of fungi by reacting with oxygenated lipids on the cell membrane surface, thereby preventing them from synthesizing ergosterol and other sterols. This prevents the formation of pores in the cell membrane and inhibits protein synthesis, leading to cell death.
