General description
OMC provides protection against UV induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CDP) formation, filtering UVB.
Application
- Simultaneous electrochemical determination of three sunscreens using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide.: This study presents an electrochemical method for the simultaneous determination of sunscreens, including 2-Ethylhexyl 4-methoxycinnamate, using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, highlighting the importance of analytical techniques in biochemistry (Cardoso et al., 2008).
- Relationship between the ability of sunscreens containing 2-ethylhexyl-4′-methoxycinnamate to protect against UVR-induced inflammation, depletion of epidermal Langerhans (Ia+) cells and suppression of alloactivating capacity of murine skin in vivo.: This study evaluates the protective effects of sunscreens with 2-Ethylhexyl 4-methoxycinnamate against UV radiation-induced skin changes, contributing to the understanding of immune responses in dermatological biochemistry (Walker et al., 1994).
