Description

Diglycolic acid is a naturally occurring compound that has been shown to have antimicrobial activity. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of human osteosarcoma cells in vitro by inhibiting hydrogen bonding interactions and interfering with the cell cycle. Diglycolic acid also inhibits the activities of certain enzymes such as glutathione reductase and cytochrome P450. The biological properties of diglycolic acid are still being researched, but it has been shown to be biocompatible with various polymers.
