Oxybenzone-13C6

Oxybenzone-13C6 (Benzophenone 3-13C6) is the 13C-labeled Oxybenzone (HY-A0067) . Oxybenzone (Benzophenone 3) is a commonly used UV filter in sun tans and skin protectants. Oxybenzone act as endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and can pass through the placental and blood-brain barriers. Benzophenone-3 impairs autophagy, alters epigenetic status, and disrupts retinoid X receptor signaling in apoptotic neuronal cells[1][2][3].
