Product Information

• Name: 3,5-Dichlorosalicylic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3,5-Dichlorosalicylic acid is a proton donor that is used to inhibit the 5-nitrosalicylic acid chain reaction. It has a high binding constant with the chlorine atom and can be used as a competitive inhibitor for the binding of 5-nitrosalicylic acid to its target enzyme. 3,5-Dichlorosalicylic acid inhibits the polymerase chain reaction by binding to DNA. This chemical also has biological properties that are similar to those of salicylic acid, including anti-inflammatory activities. 3,5-Dichlorosalicylic acid is not an effective anti-cancer agent because it does not form intramolecular hydrogen bonds or hydrogen bond interactions with DNA bases.
