Product Information

• Name: 5-(3-Hydroxyphenyl)pentanoic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 5-(3-Hydroxyphenyl)pentanoic acid (5HPP) is a fatty acid that has been isolated from the leaves of Cardunculus sp. and has shown pharmacological and nutritional properties. 5HPP has been shown to inhibit bacterial growth, which may be due to its ability to bind to bacterial DNA. 5HPP also binds to protein markers, such as methoxyphenol and phenolic, which are associated with antioxidant activity. 5HPP profiles have been determined using liquid chromatography in order to identify the major compounds in this phytochemical.
