Phenylpyruvic acid sodium
Catalog No. A56855

Phenylpyruvic acid sodium is an endogenous metabolite that acts primarily as a precursor in the synthesis of 3-phenyllactic acid via lactate dehydrogenase. It exhibits notable antifungal properties, enhancing the activity of multiple lactic acid bacterial strains against fungal contaminants such as Aspergillus niger and Penicillium roqueforti. Additionally, phenylpyruvic acid sodium influences enzymatic activity in the pentose phosphate pathway, notably reducing glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity in rat brain homogenates, making it a valuable reagent for research in metabolic and antifungal studies.
