Geraniol is a common cosmetic and aroma component since, it is a naturally occurring terpenoid in food plants. When used topically, it mainly serves as a pesticide against mites and ticks, as well as mosquitoes. The majority of research indicates that geraniol is safe for both humans and the environment, while when exposed through the skin or the air, some people experience allergies that are not life-threatening. Some aromatic plants' essential oils include geraniol, a commercially significant terpene alcohol. It is a common component in consumer goods made by the flavour and fragrance industries and is considered one among the most essential compounds in these fields. Geraniol is a natural pest control agent with low toxicity, and it has a nice aroma on top of being insecticidal and repellent. One novel family of cancer chemo preventive medicines may be geraniol. Some vascular effects, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, and antibacterial biological activity have also been studied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
