Science
Mechanism of Action
Functions as a dual-action protective agent by chelating metal ions to prevent oxidation-catalyzing reactions while simultaneously neutralizing free radicals through its antioxidant properties. The acetylation modification enhances its stability and allows it to form protective barriers against environmental stressors.
