What is the role of guaiacol?

What is the role of guaiacol?

Guaiacol is used in traditional dental pulp sedation, and has the property of inducing cell proliferation; guaiacol is a potent scavenger of reactive oxygen radicals and its radical scavenging activity may be associated with its effect on cell proliferation.

What is the density of 2 Methoxyphenol?

1.11 g/cm³Guaiacol / Density

What is chemical formula of guaiacol?

C7H8O2Guaiacol / Formula

What is guaiacol peroxidase?

Guaiacol peroxidases are heme-containing proteins that preferably oxidize aromatic electron donors such as guaiacol and pyragallol at the expense of H2O2 (Sharma et al. 2012). Guaiacol peroxidase is associated with many important biosynthetic processes and defense against abiotic and biotic stresses.

What is the structure of Ortho Methoxyphenol?

3-Methoxyphenol

Which is more acidic Methoxyphenol or phenol?

m-Methoxyphenol is a weaker acid than phenol.

Is guaiacol an inhibitor?

Guaiacol is a competitive inhibitor of purified GYS1 and a mixed inhibitor of the enzyme in cell lysate.

Is guaiacol a substrate for peroxidase?

Guaiacol was used as the target phenolic compound because it is a widely known substrate used for assaying peroxidase activity in the extract from different sources.

How is peroxidase activity determined?

Peroxidase activity was measured by determining the absorbance of yellow product at 450 nm. Increase in absorbance was directly proportional to the peroxidase activity.
