Description

Medicarpin-3-o-Glucoside CAS NO 52766-70-8 is a bioactive isoflavonoid glucoside, a key marker compound and intermediate in the biosynthesis of phytoalexins. This compound matters for its role as a natural plant defense metabolite and its potential as a reference standard for analytical and research purposes. It is primarily needed by the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and agricultural biotechnology industries for research into plant stress responses, metabolic pathway studies, and the development of natural product-based formulations.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Used as a high-purity analytical standard for quality control and method validation in the development of herbal medicines and botanical extracts.
• Nutraceutical Research: Serves as a key ingredient or marker in studies focused on the bioactivity and standardization of legume-based supplements.
• Plant Biochemistry Studies: Essential for investigating the biosynthetic pathways of medicarpin and related pterocarpans in plants like alfalfa and chickpea.
• Agrochemical Development: Investigated for its natural phytoalexin properties in the development of plant defense stimulants or bio-pesticides.
• Academic & Institutional Research: Utilized in universities and research institutes for pharmacological screening, metabolic engineering, and phytochemical analysis.

Quality Control

Our Medicarpin-3-o-Glucoside is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch is characterized and tested using advanced analytical techniques including HPLC, MS, and NMR to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing all relevant specifications. For research and development requiring specific purity grades (e.g., >95%, >98%), please contact our technical team.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider desiccant use and storage under inert atmosphere.
