Mandelic acid is an increasingly popular alpha hydroxy acid treatment known for its unique anti-aging and antibacterial properties. Know chemically as alpha-hydroxybenzeneacetic acid, Mandelic acid is derived from bitter almond; its name, too, is derived from the German word for almond, mandel.
Lactic acid is an organic compound with the formula CH3CH(OH)CO2H. In its solid state, it is white and water-soluble. In its liquid state, it is clear. It is produced both naturally and synthetically. With a hydroxyl group adjacent to the carboxyl group, lactic acid is classified as an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). In the form of its conjugate base called lactate, it plays a role in several biochemical processes. In solution, it can ionize a proton from the carboxyl group, producing the lactate ion CH. 3CH(OH)COâ. 2. Compared to acetic acid, its pKa is 1 unit less, meaning lactic acid deprotonates ten times more easily than acetic acid does.
