Used in research for its potential anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. The compound's phenolic structure enables it to scavenge free radicals, potentially reducing the risk of oxidative stress-related chronic diseases such as heart disease and cancer.

It shows promise in studies related to cellular protection against oxidative stress and exhibits anti-inflammatory effects at the cellular level, with possible applications in health products or cosmetics for reducing skin inflammation or alleviating chronic inflammatory conditions.

Investigated for possible applications in neurodegenerative disease models due to its ability to modulate signaling pathways involved in cell survival. Preliminary research also indicates antimicrobial activity, particularly against certain bacteria, suggesting future uses in disinfectant products or infection treatments. However, further in vitro and in vivo studies are needed to confirm efficacy and safety.

Also explored for use in cosmetic formulations aimed at skin protection and anti-aging, leveraging its natural plant-derived origin and bioactivity.
