β-Caryophyllene(CAT: R058895) is a natural bicyclic sesquiterpene commonly found in essential oils of plants such as clove, black pepper, and cannabis. Uniquely, it functions as a dietary cannabinoid, selectively binding to the CB2 receptor without psychoactive CB1 activity, making it a promising compound in inflammation, pain, and metabolic research. Its antioxidant, antimicrobial, and cytoprotective properties extend its relevance to studies in neurological disorders, cardiovascular health, and cancer biology. In addition, β-Caryophyllene is investigated in nutraceuticals, cosmetics, and material applications for its bioactive and aromatic profile.
