Application

Menthone has been used in the following studies:
  • To prepare the model flavor mix in a study to investigate the release of various aroma compounds in xanthan-thickened food model systems having different viscosities.
  • As standard in the quantification of volatile constituents and odour-activity value (OAV) in ′Marion′ and ′Black Diamond′.
  • Modified semisolid agar antifungal susceptibility method (SAAS) to investigate the anti-fungal activities of various cyclic terpenes against Fusarium verticillioides MRC 826.

General description

Menthone is a cyclic oxygenated terpene and its antioxidant potential has been evaluated. It is one of the key active component of Danshu capsule (DSC), a medicinal compound in traditional Chinese medicine.

The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of cyclic terpenes (limonene, menthol, menthone and thymol) against Fusarium verticillioides MRC 826 was assessed by using the semisolid agar antifungal susceptibility (SAAS) technique. Limonene, menthol, menthone and thymol were evaluated at final concentrations of

This review discusses the relationship between the chemical composition and antioxidant property of peppermint tisane and essential oil. Phenolic acids (e.g. rosmarinic and caffeic acids), flavones (e.g. luteolin derivatives) and flavanones (e.g. eriocitrin derivatives) are possibly the major infusion antioxidants.
