Anethole is distinctly sweet, measuring 13 times sweeter than sugar. It is perceived as being pleasant to the taste even at higher concentrations. It is used in alcoholic drinks ouzo, rakı, anisette and absinthe, among others. It is also used in seasoning and confectionery applications, oral hygiene products, and in small quantities in natural berry flavors. |
Because they metabolize anethole into several aromatic chemical compounds, some bacteria are candidates for use in commercial bioconversion |
Anethole is used on preparing Anetholetrithione, It is a drug used in the treatment of dry mouth Anetholetrithione is an organosulfur compound, specifically, a dithiole-thione derivative. |
Pinpinellaanisum contains over 80% anethole. We have found that trans-anethole has fumigant activity that may match or exceed methyl bromide. |
Anethole compounds and mixture is used as natural and safe alternative to fungicides, bacteriocides, nematicides and insecticides for plant protection and against household pests |
Keep in tight closed container in a cool and dry place, protected light. Shelf life is 12 Months from date of Manufacturing |
Gl Drums packaging (we can package depending upon customer requirements, e.g. 25, 50 or 200kg). |
