Carnosic Acid Analysis Service

Carnosic acid is a diterpene compound with notable antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, primarily found in plants like rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) and common sage (Salvia officinalis). As a natural antioxidant, carnosic acid effectively scavenges free radicals and protects cells from oxidative damage. It also demonstrates antimicrobial, anticancer, and neuroprotective activities. Carnosic acid finds broad applications in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries, especially in delaying food spoilage and enhancing product stability. Given its extensive biological functions and potential applications, accurate quantification of carnosic acid in biological samples is crucial for understanding its mechanisms and developing related products.
