Description

Isopentyl 4-methoxycinnamate is a fluorescent molecule that is used to measure otoacoustic emissions in neonates. The viscosity of isopentyl 4-methoxycinnamate can be measured by using an analytical method for determining the melting point. Isopentyl 4-methoxycinnamate has been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, which is resistant to ciprofloxacin. Isopentyl 4-methoxycinnamate has also been shown to have potent inhibition activity against Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, but not against Enterobacter cloacae. The fluorescence intensity of isopentyl 4-methoxycinnamate can be enhanced by adding glycerin or sodium citrate to the solution. It can also be prepared as a particle by adding sodium chloride or potassium chloride
