High impact information on beta-Hexenol

Three compounds (cis-3-hexen-1-ol, linalool, and cis-alpha-bergamotene) increased egg predation rates by a generalist predator; linalool and the complete blend decreased lepidopteran oviposition rates [1].
Changes in serotonergic activity in the cortex and hippocampus were suggested to be involved in the anxiolytic effect of (Z)-3-hexenol observed in the elevated plus-maze test [2].
A monoclonal antibody against cis-3-hexen-1-ol was prepared and used to separate and/or concentrate delta 17-6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha (PGF1 alpha) in the human sera. cis-3-Hexen-1-ol was conjugated with the human serum albumin (HSA) according to the N-succinimidylester method and hyperimmunized to BALB/c mouse [3].
Binary model aqueous solutions containing the authentic odorants of a jasmine tea infusion, (E)-2-hexenyl hexanoate (I), (Z)-3-hexenol (II), and indole (III), were each prepared in a concentration below the odor threshold [4].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of beta-Hexenol

Chemical labeling and bioassay experiments established that exogenous (Z)-3-hexenol can be taken up and converted to a less active acetylated form [5].
