Bioactivity

• In Vivo:
  Under acidic growth conditions, Benzoic acid readily enters cells where its intracellular ionization significantly reduces both the intracellular pH and the levels of adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase). Benzoic acid is susceptible to oxidation by hydroxyl radicals produced by stimulated neutrophils. The average absorption of Benzoic acid through human skin shows no difference from that in rat studies, being minimally affected by skin thickness. The maximum rate of Benzoic acid transport across human skin cell membranes is 16.54 μg/cm2 per hour, with an actual dose of 70.6% in the receptor fluid after 24 hours.
