99% Purity pharmacutical material Caffeic acid for skin care CAS NO.331-39-5

high quality pharmacutical material caffeic acid for skin care

description:

caffeic acid has been shown to inhibit carcinogenesis, although other experiments show possible

carcinogenic effects. it is also known as an antioxidant in vitro and also in vivo. caffeic acid also shows

immunomodulatory and anti inflammtory activity.

caffeic acid outperformed the other antioxidants, reducing aflatoxin production by more than 95

percent.

the studies are the first to show that oxidative stress that would otherwise trigger or enhance

aspergillus flavus aflatoxin production can be stymied by caffeic acid. this opens the door to using

natural anti-fungicide methods by supplementing trees with antioxidants.another study also showed

that cape suppresses acute immune and inflammatory responses and holds promise for therapeutic

uses to reduce inflammation.

application:

caffeic acid is safe to be applied in cosmetics and has a broader antibacterial and antiviral activity. it

canalso absorb ultraviolet radiation. a low concentration of it already has inhibitory efficacy on the

generation of skin melanin. its applied amount in the beauty products for whitening is at the range of

0.5 to 2%. it can also be used as additive for the oxidized hair dyes which is good for enhancing the

strength of the color.

preparation: it can be produced from the perkin’s reaction between protocatechuic aldehyde and

acetic acid.

function:

1. reagents for organic synthesis.

2. intermediate of caffeic acid; can be used in organic synthesis.

3. used for biochemical studies.
