“…The acute oral LD50 of NEL was evaluated to be 4.5 g/kg in Wistar rats, which indicated that it is safe (Lapczynski, Foxenberg, Bhatia, Letizia, & Api, 2008). In addition, NEL is abundant and its use worldwide is in the region of 100e1000 metric tonnes per annum (Lapczynski et al, 2008), showing its potential as a plant-based preservative in food industrials.…”

“…NEL has a sweet rose odor and is originally from essential oil which are classified as “generally regarded as safe” (GRAS) by the United State Food and Drug Administration (FDA) [15]. Some acute toxicity tests for oral, dermal, and intramuscular have proved that NEL is very safe, for example, the acute oral LD50 of NEL was evaluated to be 4.5 g/kg by Wistar rats [5]. Moreover, NEL are abundant and its use worldwide is in the region of 100–1000 metric tonnes per annum [5], which makes NEL suitable for development into a natural food preservative.…”

“…For their especially pleasant sweet-floral impressions, NEL is used in flavors in food products, such as nonalcoholic beverages, candies, puddings, ice creams, baked goods, chewing gums and syrups [4]. NEL is also widely used in decorative cosmetics, fine fragrances, shampoos, toilet soaps, and other toiletries as well as household cleaners and detergents [5]. NEL are known to have antimicrobial activities against some gram-(positive) and gram-(negative) bacteria, as well as the yeast Candida albicans [4].…”

The antifungal efficacy of nerol (NEL) has been proved against Aspergillus flavus by using in vitro and in vivo tests. The mycelial growth of A. flavus was completely inhibited at concentrations of 0.8 μL/mL and 0.1 μL/mL NEL in the air at contact and vapor conditions, respectively. The NEL also had an evident inhibitory effect on spore germination in A. flavus along with NEL concentration as well as time-dependent kinetic inhibition. The NEL presented noticeable inhibition on dry mycelium weight and synthesis of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) by A. flavus, totally restraining AFB1 production at 0.6 μL/mL. In real food system, the efficacy of the NEL on resistance to decay development in cherry tomatoes was investigated in vivo by exposing inoculated and control fruit groups to NEL vapor at different concentration. NEL vapors at 0.1 μL/mL air concentration significantly reduced artificially contaminated A. flavus and a broad spectrum of fungal microbiota. Results obtained from presented study showed that the NEL had a great antifungal activity and could be considered as a benefit and safe tool to control food spoilage.

Monoterpenes are the naturally occurred essential oils in various plant species having a wide range of biological activities. Attentions on the natural compounds, especially those are plant-derived is growing day by day. Nerol, a monoterpene having some important biological activities along with its other applications, may be a hopeful tool in this context. By considering the above circumstances, this study aimed to perform a scientific and technological prospective study on this charming monoterpene with an emphasis on the treatment of neglected diseases along with other monoterpenes. We conducted a comprehensive and systematic search for published articles, periodicals, magazines in the CAPES, ScienceDirect and Pubmed, while for patents we have gone through search in National Institute of Industrial Property of Brazil (INPI), European Patent Office (EPO), World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) and United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). Results suggesting monoterpenes have therapeutic potentials against malaria, dengue, schistosomiasis, tuberculosis, leprosies, leishmaniasis and chagas diseases. Nerol has anti-tuberculosis potential. In conclusion, more researches are recommenced with nerol in a context of treatment of neglected diseases.
