“…Complete recovery was attained, although similar preparations with caprylic acid (C8) were more potent in vitro. [16] UA has an influence on the growth of Sacharomyces cerevisiae. At concentrations lower than 2.0 mm an increased lag phase and a slower exponential growth rate were observed.…”

A lot of attention is currently being paid to the transition to a biobased economy. In this movement, most efforts concentrate on the development of bioenergy applications including bioethanol, biodiesel, thermochemical conversion of biomass, and others. However, in the energy sector other nonbiomass alternatives are known, whereas no valuable alternatives are available when thinking about chemical building blocks. Therefore, it is also essential to develop new routes for the synthesis of bio-based chemicals and materials derived thereof. Such intermediates can originate either from plants or from animals. Castor oil is a non-edible oil extracted from the seeds of the castor bean plant Ricinus communis (Euphorbiaceae), which grows in tropical and subtropical areas. Globally, around one million tons of castor seeds are produced every year, the leading producing areas being India, PR China, and Brazil.2 10-Undecenoic acid or undecylenic acid is a fatty acid derived from castor oil that, owing to its bifunctional nature, has many possibilities to develop sustainable applications.

“…[22][23][24][25] The rst scientic reports on the antimicrobial properties of caprylic acid appeared in the 1940s and 1950s. 26,27 This acid can be extracted from the milk of some mammals, as well as in coconut and palm oil. 28 Akula et al described that caprylic acid exhibits potential anticandidal activity against yeast.…”
