Tributyl citrate
Anesthetic
Tributyl citrate is a citrate ester that functions primarily as a topical anesthetic. It is characterized by low toxicity and systemic safety, exhibiting no genotoxicity or skin sensitization. This compound induces a prolonged needle-prick insensitivity for over two hours and effectively eliminates the corneal reflex in experimental models. Additionally, tributyl citrate serves various roles, including as a plasticizer and FDA-approved food additive, making it valuable across multiple research applications, including pharmacological studies and safety assessments.
