Product Information

• Name: 3-Ethylphenol
• Synonyms: m-Ethylphenol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3-Ethylphenol is a fatty acid with a hydroxyl group. It is an aromatic hydrocarbon that has been found to inhibit the growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in laboratory experiments. 3-Ethylphenol has also been shown to be effective against other bacteria, such as Staphylococcus and Enterobacteriaceae, which are often resistant to antibiotics. 3-Ethylphenol was used in the production of chemical analyses, sample preparation, and chromatographic science. The inhibition of bacterial growth by 3-ethlyphenol is due to its ability to react with DNA bases and form adducts that inhibit protein synthesis.
