Product Information
5-Bromo-6-hydroxypyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid is a homologous organic acid that is used as a pharmaceutical preservative. It is most commonly found in acidic pharmaceutical formulations. 5-Bromo-6-hydroxypyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid inhibits the growth of bacteria and fungi by acting as an enzyme inhibitor. The inhibition of enzymes such as lactamase, which breaks down the lactam ring in penicillin, prevents bacterial and fungal growth by preventing them from breaking down their natural cell walls. 5-Bromo-6-hydroxypyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid has also been shown to have potent anticancer activity in the lab setting, although the clinical significance of this has not yet been determined.
