  • Description D-limonene, which is a volatile oil, constitutes approximately 98% of orange peel oil by weight and has moderately good knockdown activity against ectoparasites of companion animals. The insecticidal activity of both d-limonene and linalool is enhanced when synergized by piperonyl butoxide. Apart from toxicoses reported in cats (65), d-limonene generally has a high margin of safety. (±)-Limonene is a cyclic monoterpene that has been found in various plant oils and Cannabis and has antifungal activity. It completely inhibits mycelial growth and aflatoxin B1 production in A. flavus when used at concentrations of 500 and 250 ppm, respectively. (±)-Limonene also inhibits the growth of various additional fungi in vitro, including S. cerevisiae, R. glutinis, and K. thermotolerans (MICs = 500-4,000 μg/ml). It has been identified as a contact dermatitis allergen in honing oil, paint thinner, and turpentine. Formulations containing (±)-limonene have been used as fragrance and flavoring ingredients.
  • Uses d-Limonene is a flavoring agent that is a liquid, colorless with a pleasant odor resembling mild citrus. It is miscible in alcohol, most fixed oils, and mineral oil; soluble in glycerin; and insoluble in water and propylene glycol. It is obtained from citrus oil. It is also termed d-p-mentha-1,8,diene and cinene. Limonene is an antioxidant and flavoring agent that occurs in lemons, oranges, and pineapple juice, being obtained from the oils. It is a colorless liquid which is insoluble in water and propylene glycol, very slightly soluble in glycerin, and miscible with alcohol, most fixed oils, and mineral oil. It prevents or delays enzymatic browning-type oxidation.
