Product Information

• Name: 3-(3,5-Dihydroxyphenyl)-1-propanoic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3-(3,5-Dihydroxyphenyl)-1-propanoic acid is a metabolite of 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHBA) that has been found to be elevated in the urine of women with breast cancer. This metabolite may serve as a potential biomarker for early detection of breast cancer and other types of cancer. It also has anti-inflammatory and glucose regulation effects in humans. The concentration of 3-(3,5-dihydroxyphenyl)-1-propanoic acid was found to be significantly higher in urine samples from women diagnosed with breast cancer than in urine samples from healthy controls, which suggests that this metabolite could be used as a marker for early detection of breast cancer.
