Hippuric acid is used as a intermediate for the manufacturing medicine and other organic compounds. Hippuric acid can be used to study cell biology, chemical biology, bioactive small molecules, amino acid derivatives, peptide synthesis, chemical synthesis and nutrition. Hippuric acid has been used to inform the metabolism and urinary excretion of procyanidins.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
