Bilobol is an alkylresorcinol from Ginkgo biloba. Chemically, it is similar in structure to urushiol, the irritant found in poison ivy; it is a strong skin irritant itself.{{Cite journal|title=Comparison of the effects of bilobol and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate on skin, and test of tumor promoting potential of bilobol in CD-1 mice |pmid=2110595 |doi=10.2131/jts.15.39 |year=1990 |last1=Matsumoto |first1=Kazuyuk i|last2=Fujimoto |first2=Masao |last3=Ito |first3=Kazuo |last4=Tanaka |first4=Hitoshi |last5=Hirono|first5=Iwao|journal=The Journal of Toxicological Sciences|volume=15|pages=39–46|issue=1|doi-access=free }}
