Brand:Biosynth
Description:3-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)propionic acid (HPPA) is an inorganic acid that is found in microbial metabolism. HPPA has been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria by reacting with the hydroxyl group on the enzyme's active site, thus irreversibly inhibiting enzymatic activity. HPPA can be used as an alternative to other inorganic acids such as p-hydroxybenzoic acid and malonic acid due to its ability to scavenge anion radicals. This inhibition of enzyme activity can be used in wastewater treatment to remove organic compounds from industrial waste streams. It also has been shown to have anti-cancer properties against human breast cancer cells, which may be due to its ability to induce cell death through apoptosis and/or necrosis.
