Product Information
Name:Naphthenic acid
Brand:Biosynth
Description:Naphthenic acid is a metal chelate that is used in synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy. It has been shown to have biodegradation properties and can be used as an indicator for water quality. Naphthenic acid has been found to be a potent inhibitor of corrosion and is often used as an additive to petroleum products, such as gasoline, that are made from crude oil. Naphthenic acid also has acute toxicities and can cause toxicity studies on humans. It is able to inhibit energy metabolism in cells by binding to the mitochondrial membrane, which may be due to its ability to bind with benzalkonium chloride. Naphthenic acid can also be used for analytical methods, such as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, because it has high sensitivity and specificity.
