Description

o-Desmethylangolensin is a significant mammalian metabolite of the soy isoflavone daidzein, formed by gut microbiota. This compound is a key biomarker for assessing isoflavone metabolism and bioavailability in nutritional and clinical studies. It is primarily utilized by research institutions, pharmaceutical developers, and nutraceutical companies focused on phytoestrogen research, metabolic pathway analysis, and the development of diagnostic assays.

Application

• Biomarker in Clinical & Nutritional Research: Used as a reference standard to quantify daidzein metabolism in human and animal studies.
• Pharmaceutical R&D: Serves as a critical intermediate or reference compound in the development of drugs targeting estrogen-related pathways.
• Nutraceutical Analysis: Essential for standardizing and validating assays that measure the efficacy and metabolic fate of soy-based supplements.
• Academic Research: Employed in biochemical studies to investigate the biological activities and health implications of isoflavone metabolites.
• Diagnostic Kit Development: Used in the manufacturing of calibration standards for ELISA kits and other immunoassays targeting phytoestrogen metabolites.
