Description

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).
