Description

Convallatoxin CAS NO 508-75-8 is a potent cardiac glycoside derived from plants of the *Convallaria* genus, such as lily of the valley. This high-purity compound is critical for pharmaceutical research and development, particularly in the study of cardiac physiology and the development of novel therapeutic agents. It serves as an essential reference standard and active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) intermediate for manufacturers and research institutions in the global life sciences sector.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Used for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of cardiac glycoside content in drug formulations and botanical extracts via HPLC, LC-MS, and other analytical methods.
• Cardiovascular Research: A vital tool in biochemical and pharmacological studies investigating sodium-potassium ATPase inhibition, myocardial contractility, and mechanisms of cardiac action.
• API Intermediate: Serves as a key starting material or intermediate in the synthesis of more complex cardiac therapeutic agents and novel chemical entities.
• Biochemical Assay Development: Employed in the development and validation of high-throughput screening assays and diagnostic kits targeting cardiac biomarkers.
• Natural Product Isolation & Standardization: Used as a benchmark for the isolation, purification, and standardization of cardiac glycosides from plant sources in nutraceutical and phytopharmaceutical production.
• Toxicology Studies: Applied in research to understand the therapeutic window, pharmacokinetics, and toxicological profile of cardiac glycosides.
