Usage
gallic acid (GA), also known as gallnut acid, is a component of hydrolyzable tannins and has the chemical name 3,4, 5-trihydroxybenzoic acid. Gallic acid has a relatively high content in Yunnan Pu 'er tea and itself possesses multiple biological effects such as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor and anti-mutagenic.
Gallic acid has many uses in pharmaceuticals, inks, dyes, food, light industry and organic synthesis, etc. Gallic acid reacts with trivalent iron ions to form a blue-black precipitate, which is the raw material for blue-black ink. It is also used in industry for leather making. It can also be used as a photographic developer. Propyl gallate is an antioxidant and can be used in edible oils and fats to prevent spoilage and deterioration. In medicine, gallic acid is a hemostatic and astringent agent, as well as a mild local irritant.
It has antibacterial effects and can be used to treat bacillary dysentery. It has astringent, hemostatic and anti-diarrheal effects. It can be used as a preservative. It can be used to prepare pyrogallic acid, drugs, inks, medium dyes and anti-explosion agents, etc. It is also used as a developer and an analytical reagent for detecting free inorganic acids, dihydroxyacetone, alkaloids and metals, etc.
It can be used as a preservative, and can be used to prepare medium dyes and anti-explosion agents, etc
Used as a chemical reagent
It is mainly used as a colorant for blue-black ink. It is used in the pharmaceutical industry to prepare the sulfonamide potentiator TMP and as a compounding agent for sulfonamides such as SMZ and SD-ethyl. The food industry uses it to prepare the preservative gallic acid. It is used in the defense industry to prepare explosion-proof agents. In addition, it can also be used in the production of mordant dyes and as a developer, etc
Used as a depolarizer in electrochemical analysis; used for reducing phosphomolybdic acid; used for the detection of antimony, barium, bismuth, calcium, cerium, copper, etc.; used for the determination of phosphorus, nitrite, silver, thorium, titanium, etc.
A water-soluble phenolic acid, present in the leaves of grapes and many plants, is an effective in vitro antioxidant.
