Biological Description
| Alternative Names | 4,4'-Methylenebis[2,6-bis(2-methyl-2-propanyl)phenol] |
| Research Areas | Cancer, Oxidative Stress |
| Scientific Background | bis-BHT is a phenolic antioxidant compound known for its ability to neutralize free radicals and inhibit lipid peroxidation. Although primarily used in industrial and food preservation contexts, its antioxidant properties have implications for neurodegenerative disease research. Oxidative stress is a hallmark of many neurological disorders, and compounds like bis-BHT may offer neuroprotection by stabilizing cellular membranes and reducing oxidative damage. Further investigation is needed to evaluate its efficacy and safety in neural systems. |
