Axatra Nerolidol

Nerolidol, a sesquiterpene, is naturally synthesized by plants as a defense against insect attacks. It appears in two distinct molecular structures, trans-nerolidol and cis-nerolidol, both falling under the umbrella of the term "nerolidol."

This terpene emits a floral and woody fragrance with hints of citrus and melon. It's prevalent in plants like neroli, jasmine, ginger, tea tree, lemongrass, lavender, and cannabis. Thanks to its intricate aroma and taste, trans-nerolidol finds its way into cosmetics, skincare products, and food as a flavor enhancer. Recent research underscores trans-nerolidol's efficacy in combating diseases carried by parasites, fungal infections, and enhancing antibiotics' performance against bacterial infections.
