Product Data
Biological target:
Dodecyl gallate (Lauryl gallate) has been widely used as an antioxidant in food manufacturing, as well as in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.
In vitro activity:
The results confirm the antiviral action in cultured cells of LG (lauryl gallate) against African swine fever virus (ASFV), foot and mouth disease virus (FMDV), vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), and swine vesicular disease virus (SVDV), as well as the inhibitory effect of VPA and CRL on ASFV infection. Reference: Front Microbiol. 2019 Aug 14;10:1853. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31474954/
In vivo activity:
Lauryl gallate (antioxidant food additive E-312) prevents the formation of dimethylbenzanthracene-induced skin tumours in mice, and kills, selectively, tumoral cells on established tumours. This results in total remission, after topical application of the compound on the tumoral mass, without affecting the surrounding tissue.
