General description

β-Cyclocitral is a volatile compound, a C7 oxidized derivative of β-carotene. It is an analog of safranal that contributes to the flavor/aroma of several fruits, vegetables, ornamental plants, and also helps in attracting pollinators.

Application

β-Cyclocitral may be used as an analytical standard for the determination of the analyte in Sicilian (South Italy) saffron, natural water body and selected strains of Cyanobacteria by chromatography-based techniques.
