Application
- Essential oil therapy for inflammation: Research highlights the use of Cinnamomum zeylanicum essential oil, containing benzyl benzoate, in treating inflammation. Network pharmacology and experimental verification delineated the multitarget pharmacological mechanism, underscoring its potential as an anti-inflammatory agent (Mohanty et al., 2024).
- Pest control in agriculture: Benzyl benzoate was evaluated for its effectiveness as an eco-friendly pesticide against the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum, demonstrating significant repellency and low toxicity, making it a viable option for sustainable pest management (Aboelhadid et al., 2023).
- Scabies treatment: A comparative study on the efficacy of topical benzyl benzoate versus oral ivermectin for treating scabies revealed that benzyl benzoate is an effective topical treatment, providing a viable option for scabies management (Meyersburg et al., 2023).
