(R)-(-)-Mandelic acid, is used as a antiseptic ingredient particularly against urinary tract infections.Mandelic acid and its derivatives are used to apply the dual activities as an antibacterial agent and as an antiaging agent. It is used as an intermediate for the synthesis of target molecules for other applications.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
