Most infection comes directly from the soil or from plants, but cats can also be infected (when the fungus gets into fight wounds or fresh flea bites) and can shed the fungus from weeping skin wounds. Humans with skin wounds can be infected by contact with the cat's weeping sores. It can be treated.
Application. Î±-Pinene was used as standard in headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatographic analysis of volatile compounds in virgin olive oils 1. It was used in the synthesis of cesium-doped heteropolyacid having potential application in biodiesel synthesis 2.
Î±-Pinene is an organic compound of the terpene class, one of two isomers of pinene. It is an alkene and it contains a reactive four-membered ring. It is found in the oils of many species of many coniferous trees, notably the pine. It is also found in the essential oil of rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis). Both enantiomers are known in nature; (1 S ,5 S)- or (â)-Î±-pinene is more common in European pines, whereas the (1 R ,5 R)- or (+)-Î±-isomer is more common in North America. The racemic mixture is present in some oils such as eucalyptus oil and orange peel oil.
