Benefits
- It is a weak inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase.
- In a theoretical study, gallic acid extracted from grape seeds inhibits the formation of amyloid fibers, one of the possible causes of Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.
- One study suggests that gallic acid has an effect on the formation of amyloid protein by altering the properties of alpha-synuclein, a protein associated with the appearance of neurodegenerative diseases.
Potential applications
It can be used for the production of polyesters based on phloretinic acid and gallic acid.
