Description

5-Methylcoumarin-4-Cellobioside is a specialized glycosylated coumarin derivative, a compound of significant interest in advanced biochemical research and development. Its core value lies in its unique structure, which combines the bioactivity of a coumarin core with the solubility and targeting potential of a cellobiose sugar moiety. This product is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical and life science sectors, particularly those focused on developing novel enzyme substrates, fluorescent probes, and investigating carbohydrate-protein interactions.

Application

• As a specialized substrate or inhibitor in enzymatic studies, particularly for glycosidases like cellulases.
• Development of fluorescent probes and markers for cellular imaging and diagnostic assays due to the coumarin fluorophore.
• Research into carbohydrate recognition and signaling pathways in biochemical and pharmacological studies.
• A key intermediate or reference standard in the synthesis of more complex glycoconjugates and pharmaceutical candidates.
• Use in material science research for creating functionalized surfaces or polymers with specific biorecognition properties.

Quality Control

Our 5-Methylcoumarin-4-Cellobioside is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and MS for structural confirmation, and specific tests for residual solvents and moisture. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and results is provided with every shipment to ensure full traceability and compliance with your research or production 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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere.
