Description

4-Acetoxycinnamic acid is a staphylococcal bactericide that inhibits bacterial growth and is active against many gram-positive bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus. It is also active against many gram-negative bacteria, such as Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. 4-Acetoxycinnamic acid has been shown to inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus in an in vitro experiment by interfering with membrane permeability and inhibiting lipid synthesis. 4-Acetoxycinnamic acid has been shown to have antimicrobial activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, including methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA).
