Ferulic Acid Methyl Ester(Cat No.:R030119)is an esterified derivative of ferulic acid, a natural phenolic compound found in plant cell walls. It retains the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties of ferulic acid, and is often used for its enhanced lipophilicity, which improves absorption in biological systems. Ferulic Acid Methyl Ester helps scavenge free radicals and protect against oxidative stress, making it useful in cosmetic formulations as a skin-protecting agent and in health research. It has also been studied for its potential in neuroprotection, cardiovascular health, and cancer prevention, contributing to its value in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications.
