2.特点 Characteristics

曲酸学名5-羟基-2-羟甲基-1，4-吡喃酮，它是一种由微生物经发酵途径制成的具弱酸性的有机化合物，英文名称KOJICACID。精品曲酸为类白色或米黄色针状晶体；易溶于水、醇、丙酮，微溶于乙醚、乙酸乙酯、氯仿和吡啶，不溶于苯；其分子式为C6H6O4，分子量为142.1，熔点为153～156℃。

Kojic acid is scientifically known as 5-hydroxy-2-hydroxymethyl-1,4-pyrone. It is a weakly acidic organic compound produced by microorganisms through fermentation. Its English name is KOJICACID. Fine kojic acid is off-white or beige needle-shaped crystals; it is easily soluble in water, alcohol, acetone, slightly soluble in ether, ethyl acetate, chloroform and pyridine, and insoluble in benzene; its molecular formula is C6H6O4, its molecular weight is 142.1, and its melting point is 153-156°C.

3.应用 Applications

(1)应用在化妆品领域。酪氨酸在酪氨酶的催化作用下，与氧自由基经复杂的氧化、聚合，最后合成黑色素。曲酸能抑制酪氨酸酶的合成，安全无毒，所以曲酸已被配入化妆水、面膜、乳液、护肤霜中。20ug/ml浓度的曲酸就可抑制多种酪氨酸酶（或称多酚氧化酶PPO）的70～80%的活力，在化妆品中建议添加量为0.2～1.0%。

(1) Application in the cosmetics field. Under the catalytic action of tyrosinase, tyrosine reacts with oxygen free radicals through complex oxidation and polymerization to finally synthesize melanin. Kojic acid can inhibit the synthesis of tyrosinase and is safe and non-toxic, so it has been added to lotions, facial masks, lotions, and skin creams. Kojic acid at a concentration of 20ug/ml can inhibit 70-80% of the activity of various tyrosinases (or polyphenol oxidases PPO). The recommended addition amount in cosmetics is 0.2-1.0%.

(2)曲酸是生产麦芽酚和乙基麦芽酚的原料。

(2) Kojic acid is the raw material for the production of maltol and ethyl maltol.

(3)在医药领域中，由于曲酸对真核细胞无致突变作用，又可消除人体内在自由基，所以曲酸已作为头孢类抗生素的原料。

(3) In the field of medicine, kojic acid has been used as the raw material for cephalosporin antibiotics because it has no mutagenic effect on eukaryotic cells and can eliminate free radicals in the human body.

(4)在农业领域中，曲酸可用于生产生物农药。添加0.5～1.0%曲酸制成的生物微肥（深红色液体），不论是低浓度作为叶面肥进行喷施，还是制增长增产剂进行根施，这种作物生产促进剂用途广泛

(4) In the agricultural field, kojic acid can be used to produce biological pesticides. The biological micro-fertilizer (deep red liquid) made by adding 0.5-1.0% kojic acid can be widely used as a foliar fertilizer or a growth and yield agent for root application.

(5)在其它领域中，曲酸也可作为铁分析试剂、胶片去斑剂等。

(5) In other fields, kojic acid can also be used as an iron analysis reagent, film spot remover, etc.
