Eugenol is a major volatile constituent of clove essential oil obtained through hydrodistillation of mainly Eugenia caryophyllata (=Syzygium aromaticum) buds and leaves. It is a remarkably versatile molecule incorporated as a functional ingredient in numerous products and has found application

Journal of insect science (Online), 12, 56-56 (2012-09-12)
This review discusses the occurrence and distribution (within a plant) of methyl eugenol in different plant species (> 450) from 80 families spanning many plant orders, as well as various roles this chemical plays in nature, especially in the interactions

Eugenol-containing dental materials are frequently used in clinical dentistry. When zinc oxide-eugenol (ZOE) is applied to a dentinal cavity, small quantities of eugenol diffuse through the dentin to the pulp. Low concentrations of eugenol exert anti-inflammatory and local anesthetic effects

Journal of oral rehabilitation, 21(4), 469-473 (1994-07-01)
The diffusion gradient which develops across dentine and the clearance into the capillary circulation at the pulpal side of the tissue both reduce the concentration of potential toxins applied to dentine, thus protecting pulpal cells. The data presented on eugenol
