Welcome to the Essential Oils Database (EODB)

The Essential Oil Database (EODB) is a comprehensive research platform developed based on over ten years of scientific research. It is aimed at exploring the therapeutic potential of essential oils (EOs). The EODB provides a valuable resource for researchers, clinicians and practitioners involved in the medical applications of essential oils in various health fields.

Comprehensive Data on Essential Oils

The EODB houses detailed profiles of essential oils, each encompassing:

Chemical Information: Oil code, CAS number, SMILES notation, molecular formula, molecular weight.
Botanical Data: Oil name, plant name, botanical family, plant part used, extraction method, country of origin.

This structured data facilitates the identification and analysis of EOs based on chemical composition, botanical source, and therapeutic potential.

Therapeutic Applications

The EODB includes experimental data on the following therapeutic areas:

Anti-Cancer: EOs have demonstrated anticancer properties, exhibiting cytotoxic effects on various cancer cell lines.
Anti-Epilepsy: Certain EOs possess anticonvulsant activity, potentially benefiting individuals with epilepsy.
Anti-Alzheimer's Disease: EOs have shown potential in improving cognitive function and memory in Alzheimer's disease models.
Anti-Hepatitis B Virus (HBV): EOs have exhibited potent anti-HBV activity, inhibiting HBsAg and HBeAg secretion.

Research Methodology

The EODB integrates data from extensive studies, including:

Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS): Used to analyze the chemical composition of EOs.
In Vitro and In Vivo Studies: Conducted to assess the biological activities of EOs.
Machine Learning Models: Employed for virtual screening and prediction of EO efficacy.
Molecular Mechanism Analysis: Utilized transcriptomics, network pharmacology, and Western blotting assays.
