Description and Uses

Furaneol is a very important aroma chemical and is a key flavoring compound found in many kinds of fruits. It can be chemically formed through different carbohydrates during the Mainlard reaction. It can also be synthesized by yeast, bacteria and plants and play some physiological effects. Study has shown that it can suppress the phosphorylation of cAMP response element binding protein, underlying its potential role as an effective inhibitor of hyperpigmentation. It also has the potential to become an effective antimicrobial agent for human beings.

2,5-Dimethyl-4-hydroxy-3(2H)-furanone is a component of meat essence composition. 2,5-Dimethyl-4-hydroxy-3(2H)-furanone is used in the flavor and perfume industry due to its sweet strawberry aroma.
