| Application: | Ethyl linoleate can be used as a drying agent for alkyd paints. It can also form N2,3-ethenoguanine via reaction with deoxyguanosine. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Ethyl linoleate solated from Oxalis triangularis inhibits forskolin-induced melanogenesis and tyrosinase activity in mouse B16 melanoma cells . This anti-melanogenic effect is mediated by inhibiting cAMP production. |
| General description: | Ethyl linoleate can undergo auto-oxidation in the presence of the catalyst manganese(II)acetylaceton |
