CIVET Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Chemical Properties

Civet cats are native to Africa. The animals are also found in India, Malaysia, Indochina and Indonesia. The product consists of odorous glandular secretion of the male and female civets. The largest quantities come from Africa, where the animals are kept captive on farms. The animal glands are drained of the secretion approximately once a week. Civet has a very strong, putrid odor, becoming sweet on dilution.

Chemical Properties

Civet absolute has a sweet animal-like odor, not very strong but rich and tenacious.

Chemical Properties

Civet is a glandular secretion produced by both sexes of the civet cat (Viverridae). Two species are known: Civettictis civetta, which inhabits Ethiopia, and Viverra zibetha, found in India and Southeast Asia.
The animals are kept in cages, and the fresh secretion is taken from the pouches at regular (about 1-week) intervals. Civet is almost liquid with a light yellow color. It darkens when exposed to light and takes on a consistency similar to that of salve. In dilutions (e.g., as an alcoholic tincture), civet has a pleasant, sweetish odor. A resinoid prepared by extraction with acetone is a dark brown-red mass. Civetone is themain odoriferous constituent of civet (2.5–3.4%). Civet contains other macrocyclic ketones such as cyclohexa- and cycloheptadecanone and (Z)-6-cycloheptadecenone. Traces of indole and skatole contribute to the animal note.
Civet has a distinctly different odor frommusk andwas formerly a versatile ingredient of fine fragrances.

Physical properties

It is a yellowish to brownish, honey-like paste.

Occurrence

Natural civet is a glandular secretion from both sexes of the Viverra civetta, a mammal of the Viverridae family.

Preparation

By extraction of natural civet (Naves, 1974).

Definition

Extractives and their physically modified derivatives such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, inorganic ions, etc. obtained from Viverra civetta. Viverridae.

Essential oil composition

The important constituents of civet are civetone, ska toi and civetol

Composition

African civet contains approximately 1.0% skatole.

Safety Profile

Low toxicity by ingestion and skincontact. A skin irritant. When heated to decomposition itemits acrid smoke and irritating vapors.
