Octyl acetate

Octyl acetate is an orally active aliphatic ester. Octyl acetate has certain antioxidant properties. Octyl acetate contributes to the formation of fruit aroma and affects the flavor of fruits such as strawberries. Octyl acetate can be used in the research of malignant melanoma, colon cancer and breast cancer[1][2][3][4].
