Description

Campesterol Acetate is a high-purity derivative of campesterol, a key plant sterol, produced under stringent quality control for industrial and research applications. This compound serves as a critical reference standard and intermediate in the synthesis of more complex steroidal molecules. It is essential for manufacturers and researchers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and fine chemical sectors requiring precise, high-quality sterol derivatives for product development and analytical purposes.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Used as a certified reference material (CRM) for the identification, purity assessment, and quantification of campesterol and related sterols in drug substances and finished products via analytical techniques like HPLC and GC-MS.
• Nutraceutical Research: Acts as a key intermediate or analytical standard in the development and quality control of plant sterol-based dietary supplements aimed at supporting cardiovascular health.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a versatile building block or protected intermediate in the organic synthesis of more complex steroidal compounds for various research and development programs.
• Biochemical Studies: Utilized in metabolic pathway research and studies investigating the biological activity, absorption, and metabolism of plant sterols and stanols.
• Cosmetic Ingredient Intermediate: Employed in the research and development of specialty cosmetic formulations where plant-derived sterols are valued for their skin-conditioning properties.
• Food Science Analysis: Functions as an internal standard or calibrant in the analysis of sterol content and profile in edible oils, fats, and fortified food products.
