Used in pharmaceutical and biochemical research for its anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial (particularly against gram-positive bacteria), and antioxidant properties. Shows potential in development of new drugs targeting bacterial infections and chronic inflammation, as well as cytotoxic effects against certain cancer cell lines, indicating possible application in oncology. Its natural origin makes it a candidate for phytochemical-based therapies, and it may be applied in health products or cosmetics to reduce cell degradation.
