Description

4,15-Diacetylverrucarol is a chemically modified derivative of the trichothecene mycotoxin verrucarol, characterized by the acetylation of its hydroxyl groups. This modification is critical for researchers studying structure-activity relationships, metabolic pathways, and the synthesis of reference standards within the field of mycotoxicology. As a high-purity analytical standard, it is essential for laboratories in the pharmaceutical, agricultural, and food safety sectors requiring precise calibration for toxin detection and quantification.

Application

• Analytical Reference Standard: Primary use as a certified standard for the calibration of HPLC, LC-MS, and GC-MS systems in mycotoxin analysis.
• Biochemical Research: Investigation of trichothecene biosynthesis, toxicity mechanisms, and cellular interactions in academic and institutional research.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Serving as a key intermediate or reference compound in the research of antifungal agents and toxin inhibitors.
• Food & Feed Safety Testing: Essential for developing and validating analytical methods to detect verrucarol and related mycotoxins in agricultural commodities.
• Toxicology Studies: Used in *in vitro* and *in vivo* studies to assess the toxicological profile and environmental impact of trichothecenes.
• Quality Control: Employed by manufacturers of diagnostic kits and immunoassays for mycotoxins to ensure assay accuracy and reliability.
