:Protocetraric acid
Description:
Protocetraric acid is a naturally occurring compound classified as a lichenic acid, primarily found in various lichen species. It is characterized by its chemical structure, which includes a long carbon chain with multiple functional groups, contributing to its unique properties. The substance is known for its potential biological activities, including antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects, making it of interest in pharmacological research. Protocetraric acid is typically a white to pale yellow solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents. Its molecular formula reflects a specific arrangement of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, which influences its reactivity and interactions with other compounds. Additionally, protocetraric acid has been studied for its role in traditional medicine and its potential applications in developing new therapeutic agents. As with many natural products, its extraction and purification from lichen sources can be challenging, necessitating advanced techniques in organic chemistry for effective isolation.

CAS:<p>Protocetraric acid is an inorganic acid that is found in the plant Usnea longissima, which is a lichen. Protocetraric acid has been shown to have anticancer activity and antimicrobial properties. It also scavenges free radicals and inhibits candida growth. Protocetraric acid has been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects in mice with colitis. Protocetraric acid may be effective against influenza virus and Streptococcus faecalis, but it does not inhibit the growth of other bacteria such as Escherichia coli or Pseudomonas aeruginosa.</p>Formula:C18H14O9Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:374.3 g/mol
