Curcumol ((-) -curcumol) is a bioactive sesquiterpene with many pharmacological activities, such as anti-cancer, anti-microbial, anti-fungal, antiviral and anti-inflammatory. Curcumol can effectively induce apoptosis in many cancer cells by targeting key signaling pathways such as MAPK/ERK, PI3K/Akt and NF-κB, which are often abnormally regulated in several cancers.

| Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by | Animal B Km |
| Animal A Km |
For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
