Product Description
3-Phenoxybenzoic acid is an endogenously produced metabolite.
3-Phenoxybenzoic acid (3-PBA, CAS 3739-38-6) is a metabolite of pyrethroid insecticides. It induces immunotoxicity and oxidative stress, and inhibits the phagocytic ability of macrophages. The compound has a role as a human xenobiotic metabolite and a marine xenobiotic metabolite. It has known human metabolites that include 3-phenoxybenzoylglycine. 3-Phenoxybenzoic acid is a phenoxybenzoic acid in which the phenoxy group is meta to the carboxy group.

Targets
The primary targets of 3-Phenoxybenzoic acid include macrophages, where it inhibits phagocytic ability. The compound also targets pathways involved in immunotoxicity and oxidative stress. As a metabolite of pyrethroid insecticides, it may interact with various physiological pathways. It also exhibits activity in the ER agonist pathway. These targets make it relevant for toxicology and environmental health research.
ln Vitro
In vitro, 3-Phenoxybenzoic acid induces immunotoxicity and oxidative stress. It inhibits the phagocytic ability of macrophages. The compound is studied in vitro to understand the toxicological effects of pyrethroid insecticide metabolites on immune function and oxidative stress. It also demonstrates activity in the ER agonist pathway. These in vitro activities support its use in toxicology, immunology, and environmental health research.
ln Vivo
In vivo, 3-Phenoxybenzoic acid is a human xenobiotic metabolite of pyrethroid insecticides. It is used as a biomarker for pyrethroid exposure in humans. The compound's immunotoxic and oxidative stress effects observed in vitro suggest potential in vivo effects following insecticide exposure. However, detailed in vivo data are limited. Further studies are needed to fully characterize its effects in animal models and human populations.
Enzyme Assay

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
