4-Methoxy-3-methylbenzoic acid Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Pale yellow or cream powder

Uses

MOMBA is a selective FFA2 (Free Fatty Acid Receptor 2) orthosteric agonist that activates receptor signaling pathways by binding to the orthosteric site of FFA2 with high specificity. MOMBA holds potential for research on metabolic and inflammatory diseases[1].

storage

Store at -20°C
