Zinc Benzoate is an organic metal salt in a white powder form. It is very slightly soluble in water. Zinc Benzoate is commonly used in food and feed additives as a preservative and source of zinc. It is antiseptic, anti-animalcule and anti-freezing agent used in food, medicine, tobacco, plating, printing and dyeing.

In Vitro Use Guide

The effects of zinc benzoate at concentrations of 0.01–10ug/ml on MAO activity in the mitochondria of monkey brain were studied in vitro. The MAO-A activity was inhibited dose-dependently with 5-HT as substrate, and the residual activity of MAO-A was about 10% in the presence of 10ug/ml of zinc benzoate.
