Description

Validamycin F is a specific stereoisomer of the validamycin antibiotic complex, distinguished by its unique CAS registry number 12650-72-5. This compound is valued for its potent antifungal activity, particularly against soil-borne pathogens that cause sheath blight and other plant diseases. It is a critical active ingredient for agricultural researchers and formulators developing next-generation, environmentally responsible crop protection solutions.

Application

• Primary active ingredient in agricultural fungicides for controlling Rhizoctonia solani (sheath blight) in rice, potatoes, and vegetables.
• Key component in seed treatment formulations to protect against damping-off and other seedling diseases.
• Used in research and development of novel antimicrobial agents and studying mode-of-action in fungal cells.
• Intermediate in the synthesis of other validamycin derivatives and related aminocyclitol compounds.
• Potential application in biocontrol formulations and integrated pest management (IPM) programs.

Quality Control

Our Validamycin F is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets precise specifications for research and formulation use. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
