This article analyzes bioactivity of citral, the compound which is present in essential oils, and utilizes of virtual screening techniques. In the study, to compute biological effects of citral, the utilized virtual screening that acts as relatively inexpensive and time saving approaches for drug discovery. Through the investigation of the interaction of citral with target biomolecules, such as the enzymes or receptors, this research tends to establish the molecular phenomena responsible for the pharmacological properties of citral. The results of this work help to develop a more precise knowledge of the anti-drug properties of citral and offer important information about drug development that will enable more effective treatments of various diseases and conditions.
