Description

7-o-Ethyldaidzein is a chemically modified isoflavone derivative, specifically an ethylated analog of daidzein. This structural modification enhances its lipophilicity and metabolic stability, making it a valuable reference standard and research-grade biochemical for investigating structure-activity relationships. It is primarily utilized by researchers and developers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and life science sectors for preclinical studies, analytical method development, and as a potential lead compound.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Research & Development: Serves as a key intermediate or reference standard in the synthesis and study of novel therapeutic agents, particularly in oncology, endocrinology, and metabolic disease research.
• Nutraceutical & Dietary Supplement Research: Used to study the enhanced bioavailability and biological effects of modified isoflavones compared to their natural counterparts.
• Biochemical & Life Science Research: Employed as a precise tool in enzymatic assays, receptor binding studies, and metabolic pathway analysis to understand the mechanisms of phytoestrogens.
• Analytical Chemistry: Functions as a high-purity certified reference material (CRM) for quality control, method validation, and calibration in HPLC, LC-MS, and other analytical techniques.
• Cosmeceutical Ingredient Research: Investigated for potential applications in skincare formulations due to the antioxidant and bioactive properties of isoflavone derivatives.

Quality Control

Our 7-o-Ethyldaidzein is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR and MS for structural confirmation, and residual solvent analysis, to ensure it meets stringent research-grade specifications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency for your critical 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). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere.
