Sabinene hydrate

Sabinene hydrate is a volatile organic compound of a bicyclic monoterpene alcohol. Sabinene hydrate, as a plant secondary metabolite, is naturally present in various plants and their essential oils. Sabinene hydrate exhibits broad-spectrum but varying-intensity antibacterial activity, with the greatest sensitivity to Gram-positive bacteria, especially Bacillus subtilis (MIC = 0.0312 mg/mL) and Staphylococcus aureus (MIC = 0.0625 mg/mL) . Sabinene hydrate also shows certain sensitivity to Escherichia coli and Candida albicans, with MIC values of 0.125 mg/mL for both. Sabinene hydrate can be used in the research of the ecological functions of plant defense substances[1].
