Product Description
Farnesene (mixture of isomers) is a mixture of Farnesene isomers. As a Herbivore-induced plant volatile (HIPV), farnesene has a significant impact on pest resistance) in many plant species.
Farnesene (CAS 125037-13-0) is a mixture of farnesene isomers, a sesquiterpene natural product. Farnesene is a herbivore-induced plant volatile (HIPV) that plays a crucial role in plant defense mechanisms by mediating plant-insect interactions. It has an important effect on insect resistance in many plant species. Farnesene is widely used in the fragrance and flavor industries due to its pleasant, citrusy aroma.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
As a plant volatile, Farnesene does not have a specific pharmacological target in mammalian systems. It acts as an insect repellent or attractant in plant defense. Farnesene has potential applications in the pharmaceutical and agricultural sectors, where it may have antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties.
ln Vitro
In vitro, Farnesene has been studied for its potential antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. As a herbivore-induced plant volatile, it mediates plant-insect interactions and enhances insect resistance in various plant species. Detailed in vitro pharmacological activity data in mammalian systems are limited in the available literature.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Farnesene functions as a herbivore-induced plant volatile (HIPV) that enhances insect resistance in many plant species. It plays a crucial role in plant defense mechanisms by mediating plant-insect interactions. Detailed in vivo pharmacological data in animal models are limited in the available literature.
Enzyme Assay
Farnesene's activity as a plant volatile can be studied using plant-insect interaction assays. Typical protocols involve exposing plants to herbivore damage and measuring the emission of farnesene and other volatiles. The compound's effects on insect behavior, such as repellency or attraction, can be assessed using olfactometer or choice assays.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell experiments using Farnesene in mammalian systems are limited in the available literature. The compound is primarily studied in plant systems for its role in herbivore-induced defense responses. Cell-based assays in plant cells may involve measuring the compound's effects on defense gene expression and secondary metabolite production.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies using Farnesene are limited in the available literature. The compound is a natural product primarily studied for its ecological role in plant-insect interactions. Further studies are needed to evaluate its potential pharmacological effects in animal models.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic data for Farnesene are not available in the searched literature. As a sesquiterpene with a molecular weight of 204.35 g/mol and high lipophilicity, the compound is expected to be rapidly metabolized and cleared. Further pharmacokinetic studies are needed.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Farnesene is considered safe for research use at typical concentrations. As a natural product with a mixture of isomers, it has a favorable safety profile. The compound is used in the fragrance and flavor industries. As a research compound, it is intended for laboratory use only and not for human consumption.
Additional Infomation
It has been reported that 3,7,11-trimethyldodecane-1,3,6,10-tetraene is found in the genera Malus, Artemisia, and other organisms with available data.
Farnesene (mixture of isomers) has a molecular formula of C₁₅H₂₄ and a molecular weight of 204.35 g/mol. Purity is typically 98.01%. The compound is a sesquiterpene natural product and a herbivore-induced plant volatile (HIPV) that plays a crucial role in plant defense mechanisms.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ~41.67 mg/mL (~203.91 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (10.18 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
