Description

Cyasterone CAS NO 17086-76-9 is a naturally occurring phytoecdysteroid, a class of plant-derived steroid hormones with significant biological activity. This compound is valued for its role as a reference standard in analytical research and its potential applications in life science and pharmaceutical development. It is primarily sought by researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and agrochemical industries for product development, quality control, and biochemical studies.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Used as a high-purity analytical standard for the identification and quantification of ecdysteroids in drug development and quality control (QC/QA) laboratories.
• Life Science Research: Employed in biochemical and pharmacological studies to investigate ecdysteroid receptor interactions, metabolic pathways, and potential therapeutic effects.
• Nutraceutical Ingredient Analysis: Serves as a critical marker compound for standardizing and authenticating herbal extracts and dietary supplements that contain cyasterone or related ecdysteroids.
• Agrochemical Research: Studied for its plant growth regulation properties and potential use in developing novel biopesticides or plant growth promoters.
• Academic Research: Utilized in universities and research institutes for studies in plant chemistry, endocrinology, and comparative biology.

Quality Control

Our Cyasterone is produced and tested under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity for research and development purposes. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analysis using advanced techniques such as HPLC, NMR, and MS for identity confirmation and purity assessment. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to support your regulatory and quality assurance requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container should be kept in a desiccated environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider storing under an inert atmosphere.
