Chemical compound and disease context of p-cymene

 

Biological context of p-cymene

 

Anatomical context of p-cymene

  • The oils of oregano plants were strongly characterized by p-cymene (16.8-24.9%), gamma-terpinene (16.8-24.9%), thymol (8.4-36.0%), and carvacrol (1.1-29.7%), a thymol chemotype for Origanum floribundum and a alpha-terpineol chemotype for Thymus numidicus being described for the first time [15].
  • The metabolism of p-cymene by liver microsomes from the possum, koala and rat (an animal whose diet is not terpene-rich) was examined [12].
 

Associations of p-cymene with other chemical compounds

 

Gene context of p-cymene

  • Treatment of mice with the other volatile oil constituents, p-cymene or alpha-pinene did not induce any changes in the serum ALT measured [20].
