Octyl gallate (3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate) is reported to possess antifungal activity against Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Zygosaccharomyces bailii. The fungicidal activity associated with octyl gallate is due to its ability to act as a nonionic surface-active agent (surfactant). Octyl gallate, an alkyl gallate, is reported to exhibit direct antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus BB568. It is reported to inhibit the activity of soybean lipoxygenase-1 (EC 1. 13. 11. 12, type I) with an IC50 of 1. 3μM. It is also effective in preventing lipid peroxidation.
