2-Heptanone is an aroma compound. It is a bioactive agent and has potential as a pesticide. Kinetics of release of 2-heptanone incorporated into lipid films or composite solid lipid particle (SLP) films have been investigated. 2-Heptanone is secreted by the mandibular glands of honeybees when they bite. It is reported to act as an anaesthetic in small arthropods such as wax moth larva (WML) and Varroa mites which are paralysed after a honeybee bite.
