Biological Activity

Description Benzyl alcohol (Phenylmethanol, Benzenemethanol, Phenylcarbinol, Benzoyl alcohol) is used as a local anesthetic. Also, it is used in the manufacture of other benzyl compounds, as a pharmaceutic aid, and in perfumery and flavoring.
In vitro Benzyl alcohol up to 50 mM affects primarily the inner leaflet of the red blood cell membrane and that higher concentrations affect both leaflets. These increases in membrane fluidity are not associated with changes in membrane viscoelasticity[2].
Density 1.045 g/mL at 25 °C
