Phenylacetic Acid Analysis Service

Phenylacetic acid is an important aromatic organic acid widely found in various plants and animals. It can be produced in plants through the metabolic pathways of phenylalanine and tyrosine and in animals as a metabolite of amphetamine and phenylalanine. Phenylacetic acid is commonly used in some perfumes due to its unique honey-like odor at low concentrations. Additionally, it plays a crucial role in the production of penicillin G and diclofenac. Phenylacetic acid is also used to treat type II hyperammonemia by forming phenylacetyl-CoA, which helps reduce ammonia levels in the patient's blood by reacting with nitrogen-rich glutamine to form phenylacetylglutamine, which is then excreted from the body. Phenylacetic acid has extensive applications in pharmaceuticals, fragrances, and the chemical industry, particularly in the synthesis of antibiotics and antimicrobial agents. Furthermore, phenylacetic acid plays a key role in plant growth regulation and insect pheromone research.
