High impact information on alpha-Cadinol

Bioassays revealed that heartwood essential oil exhibited the highest antitermitic activity, followed by sapwood essential oil and then the n-C6H14 soluble fraction when tested at 10 mg/g. The order of termite mortality of three compounds purified from n-C6H14 soluble extracts of heartwood was cedrol > alpha-cadinol > ferruginol [1].
The rectified mortalities of D. pteronyssinus and D. farinae were 100% for alpha-cadinol at the dosage of 6.3 microg/cm2 [2].
