Santalol(CAT:M061636) is a sesquiterpene alcohol found as a major bioactive component of sandalwood (Santalum album) essential oil. It exists primarily in two isomeric forms, α-santalol and β-santalol, both of which contribute to its characteristic woody aroma and therapeutic properties. Beyond its traditional use in perfumery and aromatherapy, Santalol has demonstrated anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer activities. Studies show that it can induce apoptosis in cancer cells, modulate oxidative stress, and protect skin from UV-induced damage, making it valuable in dermatological and cosmetic applications. With its broad pharmacological profile, Santalol represents a promising natural compound for research in cancer prevention, skin health, and aromatherapy-based wellness.
