Geraniol-D6 (Major) (Cat No.:C000855) is a deuterium-labeled form of geraniol, a naturally occurring monoterpenoid alcohol found in various essential oils. The “D6” notation indicates that six hydrogen atoms in the molecule are replaced with deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen. This labeling enables precise isotope tracing in metabolic and pharmacokinetic studies. Geraniol-D6 serves as an essential tool in research, allowing scientists to investigate the metabolic fate, enzymatic transformations, and biological activities of geraniol in a living organism. Its use contributes to a better understanding of the potential therapeutic applications and physiological effects of geraniol.
