Description

Oregonin is a natural diarylheptanoid compound primarily isolated from the bark of the alder tree (Alnus species). This bioactive molecule is valued for its significant antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, making it a compound of high interest for research and development. It serves as a key ingredient for suppliers targeting the nutraceutical, cosmeceutical, and pharmaceutical industries, where natural, plant-derived actives are in demand.

Application

• Nutraceutical Formulations: Utilized as a potent antioxidant ingredient in dietary supplements and functional foods aimed at supporting cellular health and combating oxidative stress.
• Cosmeceutical & Skincare Products: Incorporated into anti-aging creams, serums, and lotions for its skin-soothing and protective effects against environmental damage.
• Pharmaceutical Research: Serves as a reference standard and active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) intermediate in preclinical studies investigating anti-inflammatory and metabolic pathways.
• Natural Preservatives: Explored for its potential to extend shelf-life in natural product formulations by inhibiting lipid oxidation.
• Biochemical Research: Used as a specialized reagent in life science laboratories studying natural product chemistry and bioactivity.

Quality Control

Our Oregonin is produced and tested under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles, typically determined by HPLC and spectroscopic methods. Our quality commitment aligns with standards relevant for research and development applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C) to minimize oxidation. Keep the container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials.
