Produktinformation

• Name: Ceresin
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: Ceresin wax is a degradable, water-insoluble, solid wax that has been used as an antimicrobial agent in pharmaceutical preparations. The high resistance of cresol to oxidation and hydrolysis makes it an effective preservative. Ceresol can be decarboxylated to produce phenols, which have strong antiseptic properties. It also has a high acid complexing ability that makes it useful for preventing the growth of microorganisms. This property is due to the presence of fatty acids with long chains that are not easily degraded by enzymes in the stomach. When cresol is heated, it reacts with lemongrass oil and produces macroscopic reaction products that are visible when viewed under a microscope. These products are mainly composed of carboxylic acids and alcohols. Cresol also has an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) profile that is similar to those of other organic compounds such as fatty acids or polycarboxylic acids
