Bemotrizinol (
Bemotrizinol is a broad-spectrum UV absorber, absorbing UVB as well as UVA rays. It has two absorption peaks, 310 and 340 nm.
Bemotrizinol has strong synergistic effects on the SPF when formulated with bisoctrizole, ethylhexyl triazone or iscotrizinol.[7] It is the most effective UV absorber available measured by SPF, based on the maximum concentration permitted by European legislation.[8]
As of 2022,[9] bemotrizinol is not approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for use in sunscreens, but has been approved in the European Union since 2000[10] and some other parts of the world, including Australia.[11][12]
Unlike some other organic sunscreen actives, it shows no estrogenic effects in vitro.[13]
