ISOAMYL ACETATE is an organic compound that is the ester formed from isoamyl alcohol and acetic acid. It is present in many fruit aromas, especially banana, and is used in banana flavoring. It is a clear colorless liquid that is only slightly soluble in water, but very soluble in most organic solvents.

Amyl acetate, a banana essence, was used in preparation of penicillin in acid reaction. It’s also an inactive ingredient in Liquid Bandages, which are used to protect cuts and scrapes and to help prevent and protect blisters.

Vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) is a key intermediate used in the making of a number of polymers and resins for adhesives, coatings, paints. Human data on the acute toxicity of vinyl acetate is not available. Based on the carcinogenic potential of vinyl acetate in the animals, the substance can have a cancer risk for humans. Carcinogenicity is thought to act via a secondary mechanism and the concern may only be relevant above threshold concentrations.

Ethyl acetate is a widely used synthetic solvent. It is used in cosmetics and considered to be safe. Ethyl acetate is cited as a direct and indirect food additive as detailed in the Code of Federal Regulations. Ethyl acetate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for use as a synthetic flavor and/or adjuvant; limitations on concentrations of use were not specified. Ethyl acetate was tested for in vitro in human breast cancer cell line and demonstrated considerable cytotoxicity.

Estriol acetate benzoate is a semisynthetic, steroidal estrogen. Estriol benzoate diacetate is reported as an ingredient of Holin in Japan. It is an estrogen receptor agonist.

Testosterone acetate, a testosterone ester, is an androgen. It is a steroid lipid molecule considered to be practically insoluble (in water) and basic. It is an anabolic steroid and testosterone prodrug. Testosterone acetate has a faster rate of absorption in the body then other esters. In combination with two other testosterone esters, testosterone valerate and testosterone undecanoate, it is a part of Deposterona, an injectable veterinary blend steroid preparation marketed in Mexico. With its blend of slow and fast-acting esters, Deposterona is essentially a low dosed alternative to Sustanon and is used primarily to treat impotence, weakness, fatigue, and hypogonadism in male breeding animals (cows, pigs, canines, and sheep), and also as a general protein-sparing anabolic. Testosterone acetate is classified as a Schedule III drug by the United States Drug Enforcement Agency and is only legal with a prescription due to his potential for misuse and abuse.
