Description

Methyl Lucidenate A CAS NO 105742-79-8 is a high-purity, bioactive triterpenoid compound derived from the *Ganoderma lucidum* (Reishi) mushroom. This specific methylated derivative is valued for its enhanced stability and potent biological activity, making it a critical reference standard and a key intermediate for advanced research and development. It is primarily sought by professionals in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and life science sectors for applications in metabolic studies, anti-inflammatory research, and the development of high-value natural product-based therapeutics.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Used as a certified reference material (CRM) for the quality control and standardization of Reishi mushroom extracts and related herbal products.
• Bioactivity and Mechanism Studies: Employed in preclinical research to investigate its anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, and potential anti-cancer properties.
• Nutraceutical Ingredient Development: Serves as a high-purity marker compound for the formulation of standardized, evidence-based dietary supplements.
• Natural Product Chemistry: Acts as a crucial intermediate or starting material for the semi-synthesis of novel triterpenoid derivatives with optimized pharmacological profiles.
• Academic and Institutional Research: Utilized in universities and research institutes for studies on triterpenoid biosynthesis, metabolism, and structure-activity relationships (SAR).
