General description
Valeraldehyde also known as pentanal, serves as a precursor or intermediate to build more complex organic molecules.
Application
Valeraldehyde has been used to study its time-weighted average sampling using solid-phase microextraction (SPME) device.
Valeraldehyde is used as a gaseous standard in the study of the sorptive loss pattern for volatile compounds.
Valeraldehyde is used in flavoring compounds and as a rubber accelerator.

Induction of pumpkin (Cucurbita maxima Duch.) glutathione S-transferase (GST, EC 2.5.1.18) by aldehydes and related compounds was examined. All of the tested compounds induced pumpkin GST to different degrees, and it was found that (1) aldehydes induce GST directly and
