Vanillic acid Analysis Service

Vanillic acid is a common natural aromatic acid that belongs to the class of hydroxybenzoic acid compounds. Its chemical structure consists of a benzene ring, a methoxy group (-OCH₃), and a hydroxyl group (-OH). It is typically extracted from vanilla beans or other plant sources. As an oxidation product of vanillin, Vanillic acid has a mild vanilla flavor and is widely present in various plants, fruits, and beverages, such as red wine and olive oil.

 

In biological and medical research, vanillic acid has attracted attention due to its multiple pharmacological properties. Studies have shown that it possesses antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and anticancer activities. It can counteract oxidative stress in the body, reduce inflammatory responses, and inhibit the growth of certain types of cancer cells through various mechanisms. Additionally, vanillic acid has shown neuroprotective effects, making it a potential candidate for treating neurodegenerative diseases.
