Description
(extracted from source data)
DESCRIPTION Azelaic acid is a saturated dicarboxylic acid, used clinically for its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory actions, as well as for its ability to inhibit keratin and melanin production. (GtoPdb)
DESCRIPTION Azelaic acid is a nine-carbon dicarboxylic acid. Azelaic acid has antimicrobial activity against Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus epidermidis through inhibition of microbial cellular prorein synthesis. Azelaic acid has hypopigmentation action resulting from its ability to scavenge free radicals[1][2].

DESCRIPTION Azelaic acid, produced by ozone cracking of unsaturated fatty acid, could be commonly used in grease, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. (BOC Sciences Bioactive Compounds)
DESCRIPTION Antiproliferative on melonama cells; inhibits mitochondrial oxidoreductases of the respiratory chain and inhibits DNA synthesis (LOPAC library)
DESCRIPTION Azelaic acid is a saturated dicarboxylic acid found naturally in wheat, rye, and barley. It is used for the topical treatment of mild-to-moderate inflammatory acne vulgaris. It is thought that azelaic acid manifests its antibacterial effects by inhibiting the synthesis of cellular protein in anaerobic and aerobic bacteria. (Enamine Bioactive Compounds)
DESCRIPTION Azelaic acid (Anchoic acid) is a component of hair and skin conditioners and is produced by the ozonolysis of oleic acid. Azelaic acid has bacteriostatic activity against Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus epidermidis by inhibiting protoprotein synthesis in microbial cells. Azelaic acid also has the ability to inhibit pigmentation due to its free radical scavenging action. (TargetMol Bioactive Compound Library)
