Description

General description

Isoamyl alcohol is a cyanobacterial volatile organic compound that has been identified as one of the main aroma/flavor constituents in banana fruit, karanda fruits and in whey spirit.

Application

Chemotaxis assay for evaluation of memory-like behavior in wild-type and Alzheimer′s-disease-like C.elegans models.: While not directly related to isoamyl alcohol, this study uses a methodology that can be adapted for studies involving isoamyl alcohol effects on cellular processes (Fang EF et al., 2023).
