Description

4-Aminobenzoic acid is a chemical compound that can be used as an antibacterial agent in wastewater treatment. It has been shown to be effective against Aerobacter aerogenes and other bacteria. 4-Aminobenzoic acid is a basic compound with an aromatic ring and four amine groups. It is often used in the synthesis of polymers, pharmaceuticals, dyes, and pigments. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique uses 4-aminobenzoic acid as a cofactor for DNA synthesis. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is another application of this chemical compound in which it acts as a redox mediator in the electrical circuit. 4-Aminobenzoic acid also has been shown to have toxic effects on bowel disease cells, which may be due to its ability to react with nucleophilic groups on cell surfaces or by inhibiting the production of essential proteins or enzymes within the cells
