Description

Abscisic Acid β-D-Glucopyranosyl Ester is a key conjugated metabolite of the vital plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA). This compound matters for researchers and formulators as it represents a stable, transportable storage form of ABA, playing a crucial role in modulating plant stress responses and developmental processes. It is primarily needed by the agricultural biotechnology, plant physiology research, and advanced crop protection sectors for developing next-generation plant growth regulators and studying abiotic stress tolerance mechanisms.

Application

• Plant Physiology & Biochemistry Research: Used as a standard and reagent to study ABA metabolism, conjugation, transport, and signaling pathways in plants.
• Agricultural Biotechnology: Serves as a precursor or intermediate in the development of novel plant growth regulators aimed at improving drought and salinity tolerance.
• Seed Technology: Investigated for its role in seed dormancy and germination, supporting research into seed priming and coating technologies.
• Horticulture & Floriculture: Potential application in managing post-harvest senescence and improving the shelf-life of cut flowers and produce by modulating ABA-related pathways.
• Phytopharmaceutical Research: Studied for its bioactivity and potential use in developing natural product-based formulations for plant health.
• Analytical Reference Standard: Essential for the qualitative and quantitative analysis (e.g., via HPLC-MS) of ABA and its metabolites in plant tissue extracts for academic and industrial labs.
