The aim of this research work is to analyze the chemistry and diversity of forest VOCs
(volatile organic compounds) and to outline their evidence-based effects on health. This …

Forest trees are a major source of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs). Terpenes
and terpenoids are known as the main BVOCs of forest aerosols. These compounds have …

Abstract D‐limonene or 4‐isopropenyl‐1‐methylcyclohexene (C10H16) is a monocyclic
monoterpene abundant in citrus plants like lemon, orange, and grape. The application of D …

Cannabaceae plants Cannabis sativa L. and Humulus lupulus L. are rich in terpenes–both
are typically comprised of terpenes as up to 3–5% of the dry-mass of the female …

Natural products obtained in dietary components may aid the prevention and treatment of a
variety of diseases. Reports in the scientific literature have demonstrated that the …

Forest bathing has beneficial effects on human health via showering of forest aerosols as
well as physical relaxation. Terpenes that consist of multiple isoprene units are the largest …

D-limonene has been demonstrated to have important immunomodulatory properties,
including antitumor effects, and may alleviate asthma and allergies. In the present study, the …

Citrus fruits have potential health-promoting properties and their essential oils have long
been used in several applications. Due to biological effects described to some citrus species …

Terpenes and terpenoids are the largest groups of plant secondary metabolites. However,
unlike polyphenols, they are rarely associated with geroprotective properties. Here we …

Doxorubicin (Dox) is an operational and largely used anticancer drug, used to treat an array
of malignancies. Nonetheless, its beneficial use is constrained due to its renal and …
