Microbial monoterpene transformations – A review
Isoprene and monoterpenes constitute a significant fraction of new plant biomass. Emission rates into the atmosphere alone are estimated to be over 500 Tg per year. These natural hydrocarbons are mineralized annually in similar quantities.

The effects of alpha-pinene on inflammatory responses and oxidative stress in the formalin test
Alpha-pinene (α- pinene), an essential oil that falls under the category of monoterpenes, has various advantages. This research delves into the potential benefits of α-pinene in alleviating nociception caused by the formalin test and the molecular ...

Photochemical aerosol formation from α‐pinene‐ and β‐pinene [PDF]
Aerosol formation from α‐pinene and β‐pinene was studied in a series of outdoor smog chamber experiments. Since a previous study focused on β‐pinene (Pandis et al., 1991), more attention was given here to α‐pinene. The initial hydrocarbon and NOx concentrations ranged from 37 to 582 ppb and 31 to 380 ppb, respectively.
