Produktinformation

• Name: 3,5-di-tert-Butyl-4-hydroxyphenylpropionic acid
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: 3,5-Di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenylpropionic acid (BHT) is a phenolic compound that is used as an antioxidant in food and cosmetic products. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of Streptococcus faecalis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in cell culture. BHT has also been shown to have antioxidative properties in vitro. BHT has been found to react with other molecules (e.g., oxygen, carbon dioxide, or nitric oxide) to produce stable chemical species that are not harmful to cells. These reactions lead to the formation of chemical structures that are less reactive than BHT itself. This property may be due to its ability to scavenge free radicals, thereby preventing lipid peroxidation and oxidative damage.
