Application


  • Cedar Oil in Hydrogel Composite Development: Cedar essential oil was integrated into polyvinyl alcohol/cedar oil/kaolin composite hydrogels to enhance hemostatic, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties. This application underscores its potential in biomedical material engineering, particularly in wound management products (Tamer et al., 2022).

  • Food Packaging Applications: Cedar oil was utilized in the development of bioactive polypropylene films, demonstrating its efficacy as a natural preservative in food packaging. This aligns with the needs of the food industry to extend product shelf life while using sustainable, non-toxic materials (Antosik et al., 2021).

  • Antioxidant and Antibacterial Activities: The characterization of cedarwood essential oil emulsions revealed significant antioxidant and antibacterial activities, suggesting its applicability in food safety and preservation sectors. This application highlights the oil′s dual functionality, which can be leveraged in various industrial manufacturing processes (Huang et al., 2021).

  • Larvicidal Performance Enhancements: Cedarwood essential oil was effectively used in pectin-cedarwood essential oil nanocapsules, which were impregnated onto cotton bags to improve larvicidal performances against mosquito larvae. This indicates its potential use in public health applications for vector control (Kala et al., 2020).

Questions

1–3 of 3 Questions  
  1. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

  2. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
