Application

Ethyl cinnamate may be used as a reference standard:
  • to determine the toxic effects of ethyl cinnamate, affecting the growth, photosynthesis and cell physiology of Chlorella vulgaris, a dominant species of green algae based on chlorophyll fluorescence and flow cytometry analysis.
  • in the determination of ethyl cinnamate in samples of red wine using gas chromatography coupled with ion-trap mass spectrometric analysis technique (GC-MS).
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.
