Ortho-methoxycinnamaldehyde is used to protect industrial products from the action of microorganisms. The ortho-methoxycinnamaldehyde may be extracted from cassia powder or synthesised. It has a low toxicity and may be used to preserve foodstuffs e.g. meat, fish, fruit, vegetables and dairy products. It may be used also to preserve paint, leather, paper, adhesives, plastics and other materials subject to deterioration of microorganisms. |
