Description

(+)-Abscisic Aldehyde CAS NO 41944-86-9 is a key biosynthetic intermediate in the plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) pathway, playing a crucial role in plant stress physiology. This high-purity compound is essential for advanced research and development in plant biology and agricultural chemistry. It serves as a critical standard and precursor for scientists and manufacturers in the agrochemical, plant growth regulator, and academic research sectors.

Application

• Plant Physiology Research: A vital biochemical tool for studying the biosynthesis and signaling pathways of abscisic acid (ABA) in plants.
• Agrochemical R&D: Used as a key intermediate and reference standard in the development of novel plant growth regulators and stress-mitigating agents.
• Biosynthesis Studies: Essential for in vitro and in vivo studies investigating the enzymatic conversion steps in the ABA pathway.
• Analytical Standard: Serves as a high-purity certified reference material (CRM) for HPLC, LC-MS, and GC-MS analysis in agricultural and environmental testing.
• Seed Dormancy & Stress Response Research: Fundamental for experiments exploring the molecular mechanisms behind seed germination, drought tolerance, and stomatal closure.
• Production of ABA Analogs: Acts as a strategic synthetic precursor for creating labeled (e.g., deuterated) or modified analogs of abscisic acid for specialized research applications.
