General description

Safranal is the characteristic volatile aroma compound of saffron (Crocus Sativus L.).

Application


  • Proteomic and molecular analyses to understand the promotive effect of safranal on soybean growth under salt stress.: This study investigates the role of safranal in enhancing soybean growth under saline conditions through a proteomic and molecular lens, potentially offering insights into stress resistance mechanisms in crops (Kausar et al., 2024).

  • Investigation of the effect of safranal and crocin pre-treatment on hepatic injury induced by infrarenal aortic occlusion.: The study evaluates the protective effects of safranal and crocin on liver injury in an experimental model, highlighting their potential therapeutic benefits (Ozkececi et al., 2016).

The volatile components of Iranian saffron were extracted using ultrasonic solvent extraction (USE) technique and then were separated and detected by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Variables affecting the extraction procedure were screened by using a 2(5-1) fractional factorial design and
