Vanillylmandelic acid (intra-arterial injection over 1 min; 1, 10 and 100 mg/kg; the 60 min-observation period) produces a significant difference between vanillylmandelic acid groups and controls. Vanillylmandelic acid decreases the heart rate by 17.5%, 17.9% and 18.9% after 1, 10 and 100 mg/kg, respectively. Mean blood pressure is decreased by 13.5% in control animals as compared to 37%, 23% and 26% after 1, 10 and 100 mg/kg, respectively, in wistar rats.
Volatile aromatic compound released from hard woods. It is often found in wine that has been aged in wood barrels contributing to the wine’s flavor profile. It is also released during combustion, giving flavor to smoked meats.
