5,6-Epoxyretinyl palmitate
5,6-Epoxyretinyl palmitate (5,6-Epoxy-RP) is one of the main photodegradation products of Retinyl palmitate (HY-B1384) produced under UVA light irradiation. 5,6-Epoxyretinyl palmitate exhibits phototoxicity to cells and causes significant DNA single-strand breaks, DNA damage, and chromosomal mutations under light conditions.
