Description

Tridecanedioic Acid is a polycarboxylic acid that has reactive functional groups. It is used in detergent compositions as an inhibitor of the formation of soaps and hard water deposits. Tridecanedioic acid has been shown to inhibit pancreatitis, which may be due to its ability to inhibit the conversion of fatty acids into prostaglandins. Tridecanedioic acid also has anti-cancer properties, which have been shown in animal studies. In addition, it has broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against gram-positive bacteria, such as Clostridium perfringens and Staphylococcus aureus. This compound inhibits protein synthesis by inhibiting enzymes belonging to the cytochrome P450 family.
