Camphor, -/- is a bicyclic monoterpene ketone found widely in plants, especially Cinnamomum camphora. Camphor has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. It is also used for its aromatic properties as an insect repellant and in embalming fluids. It is used topically as a skin antipruritic (itch relief) and as an anti-infective agent.
