| BACKGROUND 2-nonenal is a volatile compound which is associated with ageing process. Its odor is described as cucumber, orris and fat. It is said that the extra 2-nonenal on the old-person skin is coming from the breakdown of omega-7 fatty acids, more abundant in 40+ year-old people. |
AIMS

RESULTS In this project, firstly we modelled the diffusion of a 2-nonenal molecule. Secondly, we discovered bacteria capable to grow in the very poor medium with 2-nonenal as a carbon source. Thirdly, we determined detection and toxicity thresholds for the 2-nonenal. |
