Beschreibung

4-(Methoxymethyl)phenol is a chemical compound which has been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria. It is a photochemical that has a low sub-effective dose and high photochemical properties. 4-(Methoxymethyl)phenol is found in many plants and vegetables, such as parsley and celery, and can be used as an antimicrobial agent. Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, which causes pneumonia in cystic fibrosis patients, was one of the bacterial strains inhibited by this compound. The mechanism for inhibition of this compound is unknown but it does not seem to involve the production of reactive oxygen species. Furthermore, 4-(Methoxymethyl)phenol has been shown to have potent inhibitory activity against RNA polymerase II, which is important for protein synthesis.
