Applications
Butylated hydroxytoluene is a synthetic phenolic compound mainly used as an antioxidant and preservative in the food industry. It is used to prevent the lipid oxidation in oils and fat-containing foods.Butylated Hydroxytoluene toxicity is generally considered as being low.Since Butylated Hydroxytoluene is used in many near consumer products population wide exposure is expected.
The applications of butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) have been
reported as following [1-9]:
• Butylated hydroxytoluene metabolites causing DNA strand breaks in
cultured cells and DNA breaks between nucleosomes (a typical
feature of apoptosis), which result in relieving inflammation.
• Inhibiting secretion, aggregation, and protein phosphorylation
caused by protein kinase C activators at the process of the
pre-incubation of aspirin-treated platelets.
• Inhibiting liver cancer formation induced by aflatoxin B1.
• As Michael receptor, butylated hydroxytoluene can react with
uninucleophiles and proteins.
• Reaction of 2, 6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol with fluorine (II)
- benzophenone dianion complex.
• Food additive 2, 6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol can promote acute
lung toxicity and tumor growth in mice.
• Butylated hydroxytoluene can be used to prepare organoaluminum
compound methylaluminum bis (2, 6-di-tert-butyl-4-alkylphenol
oxide).
