Gentisic acid is an active metabolite of salicylic acid degradation, which possesses a broad spectrum of biological activity, such as anti-inflammatory, antirheumatic and antioxidant properties. The antioxidant activity and radioprotective properties of gentisic acid are exerted by its phenoxyl group. It is also used in cosmetics as a skin-whitening agent for the treatment of skin pigmentary disorders by influencing the synthesis of melanin through inhibition of melanosomal tyrosinase activity Gentisic acid is also a biomarker of Renal Cell Carcinoma.

Sample Use Guides

in rats
Route of Administration: Transdermal
Antioxidant activity of gentisic acid has been studied using fast chemical kinetics and two in vitro models, namely the isolated rat liver mitochondria (RLM) and the human erythrocytes. The presence of gentisic acid (GA) during irradiation significantly reduced the levels of gamma radiation induced damages to lipids and proteins in RLM. GA efficiently scavenged hydroxyl radical (k = 1.1 × 10(10) dm(3)mol(-1)s(-1)) to produce reducing adduct radical (~76%) and oxidizing phenoxyl radical (~24%). GA has also scavenged organohaloperoxyl radical (k = 9.3 × 10(7) dm(3) mol(-1)s(-1)).
