Diethyl sebacate is an antimicrobial peptide that belongs to the group of fatty acids. It has a hydroxyl group and a carboxylic acid group in its molecule. Diethyl sebacate inhibits the growth of bacteria by interfering with their cell membranes, which can lead to leakage of cellular contents. This prevents the transport of nutrients into the cells, which eventually leads to cell death. The fatty acid diethyl sebacate has shown chemical stability at room temperature and physiological functions such as absorption enhancement when used as an excipient. It also has properties that make it useful as a film-forming polymer or an absorption enhancer for poorly soluble drugs.
