Description

7-Deaza-9-(2-Hydroxy-3-Nonyl)Adenine is a chemically modified nucleobase analog, specifically a 7-deazaadenine derivative with a hydroxynonyl side chain. This structural modification is crucial for its role as a potent and selective inhibitor of cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenase (CKX), an enzyme responsible for cytokinin degradation in plants. It is primarily utilized by researchers and agrochemical developers in plant biology and agricultural science to study and manipulate cytokinin-regulated processes, such as cell division, shoot initiation, and senescence delay.

Application

• Plant Biology Research: A key tool for studying cytokinin metabolism, signaling pathways, and their role in plant growth and development.
• Agrochemical Development: Serves as a lead compound or reference standard in the development of novel plant growth regulators aimed at enhancing crop yield and stress tolerance.
• In Vitro Plant Tissue Culture: Used to suppress cytokinin degradation, thereby improving the efficiency of shoot proliferation and micropropagation protocols.
• Senescence Studies: Applied in research to delay leaf senescence by inhibiting endogenous cytokinin breakdown, helping to understand aging processes in plants.
• Enzyme Inhibition Assays: Acts as a specific inhibitor in biochemical assays to characterize and quantify CKX enzyme activity from various plant sources.

Quality Control

Our 7-Deaza-9-(2-Hydroxy-3-Nonyl)Adenine is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and MS for structural confirmation, and loss on drying for moisture content. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, ensuring traceability and compliance with research-grade specifications. Our quality system is designed to meet the exacting standards required for biochemical and agrochemical research applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This compound is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); therefore, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or an inert atmosphere.
