Description

Gluconapin Potassium Salt(P) is a specific, high-purity salt form of the glucosinolate compound gluconapin. This product matters for researchers and formulators requiring a stable, well-defined standard or precursor for applications in plant biochemistry, nutraceutical development, and agricultural science. It is primarily needed by professionals in the agrochemical, dietary supplement, and life science research industries who require consistent, high-quality bioactive compounds.

Application

• Biochemical Research Standard: Used as a certified reference material (CRM) or analytical standard for the quantification of glucosinolates in plant extracts and food products.
• Plant Defense Studies: Serves as a precursor or model compound in research on plant-insect interactions and natural defense mechanisms.
• Nutraceutical Development: Investigated for incorporation into dietary supplements due to the potential health-promoting properties associated with glucosinolate metabolites.
• Agrochemical Formulation: Used in the development of natural plant protection products or as a marker in breeding programs for crops like mustard and rapeseed.
• Food Science & Analysis: Employed in method development and validation for analyzing the glucosinolate profile in cruciferous vegetables to assess nutritional quality.
