Description
Chlothymol is a potent positive modulator of the GABAA receptor subunit LGC-37, anticonvulsant, and antibacterial agent. Chlothymol inhibits Pentylenetetrazol-induced c-fos expression. Chlothymol inhibits the growth of Methicillin -resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains, including LAC, with an MIC of 32 μg/mL. Chlorothymol has protective effects against epileptic seizures in various mouse models[1][2].

Chemical Information

Chlorothymol

The CIR Expert panel concludes Sodium p-Chloro-m-Cresol, p-Chloro-m-Cresol, Chlorothymol, m-Cresol, o-Cresol, Isopropyl Cresols, Thymol, o-Cymen-5-ol, Cavacrol are safe at concentrations up to 0.5% in cosmetics; however, the available data are insufficient to support the safety of p-Cresol and Mixed Cresols for use in cosmetic products.
