Abstract

Eugenol is an essential oil widely used in pharmaceutical and food industry. However, the metabolism of eugenol leads to the formation of a highly reactive phenoxyl radical that can induce toxicity with macromolecules. Herein, a simple and a cost-effective methodology was described for the mimicry of eugenol metabolism. Electrochemical measurements were recorded on bare screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) and the generated metabolites were collected and detected by electrospray ionization (ESI)/Mass spectrometry (MS). The reactive intermediate was successfully formed illustrating a cheaper alternative towards the mimicry of human metabolism.
