ʻO ka ʻakika Azelaic, ʻike ʻia hoʻi ʻo ka waika nonedioic, he waikawa dicarboxylic saturated me ka molecular formula C9H16O4.ʻIke ʻia ʻo ia me he pauka crystalline keʻokeʻo ʻole ʻole, e hiki ke hoʻoheheʻe ʻia i nā mea hoʻoheheʻe kūlohelohe maʻamau e like me ka ethanol a me ka acetone.Eia kekahi, he 188.22 g/mol kona kaumaha.
Ua loaʻa i ka Azelaic acid ka kaulana nui ma muli o kāna ʻano like ʻole o nā noi ma nā wahi like ʻole.I loko o ka ʻoihana mālama ʻili, hōʻike ia i nā waiwai antimicrobial a me nā anti-inflammatory, e lilo ia i mea hoʻohui kūpono no ka mālama ʻana i nā ʻano ʻili like ʻole, me ka haki, rosacea, a me ka hyperpigmentation.Kōkua ia i ka wehe ʻana i nā pores, hoʻemi i ka mumū, a hoʻoponopono i ka hana ʻaila nui, e alakaʻi ana i ka ʻili maʻemaʻe a ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi.
Eia kekahi, ua hōʻike ka waikawa azelaic i ka ʻōlelo hoʻohiki i ka ʻoihana mahiʻai ma ke ʻano he bio-stimulant.ʻO kona hiki ke hoʻoikaika i ka ulu aʻa, photosynthesis, a me ka lawe ʻana i nā mea kanu i nā mea kanu he koho maikaʻi loa ia no ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i ka hua a me ka maikaʻi holoʻokoʻa.Hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia ma ke ʻano he suppressant ikaika no kekahi mau mea kanu pathogens, pale pono i nā mea kanu mai nā maʻi.
