Description

Bisdemethoxycurcumin CAS NO 22608-12-4 is a purified, high-potency curcuminoid compound, distinct from curcumin due to the absence of methoxy groups on its aromatic rings. This structural difference is significant as it influences bioavailability and biological activity, making it a valuable reference standard and active ingredient for research and development. It is primarily sought by manufacturers and researchers in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmeceutical industries for its targeted therapeutic and health-promoting properties.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Used for the identification, assay, and purity testing of curcuminoid-based drugs and supplements in analytical laboratories.
• Nutraceutical Formulations: Incorporated into dietary supplements for its potential anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits, often in combination with other curcuminoids.
• Cosmetic Active Ingredient: Formulated into anti-aging and skin-brightening creams and serums for its skin-protective effects.
• Biomedical Research: Serves as a key compound in preclinical studies investigating mechanisms related to inflammation, oxidative stress, and cellular signaling pathways.
• Functional Food & Beverage: Used as a bioactive component in health-focused food and drink products.
• Analytical Chemistry: Employed as a calibration standard in High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and other chromatographic methods for quantifying curcuminoids in complex matrices.

Quality Control

Our Bisdemethoxycurcumin is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and UV spectroscopy, to ensure it meets high-grade specifications suitable for research and formulation. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results are available upon request.

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 light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, prolonged exposure to light, air, or elevated temperatures should be avoided to maintain stability and potency.
