(−)-β-Pineneis a useful biochemical for proteomics research. (−)-β-Pinene is a prevalent monoterpene found in the essential oils of numerous plants. Although the precise mechanism of action of (−)-β-Pinene remains partially elusive, it is thought to exert its effects by hindering the synthesis of inflammatory mediators like prostaglandins and leukotrienes. Additionally, it is believed to influence the activity of neurotransmitters, including dopamine and acetylcholine
