Description

Epi-Dihydrophaseic Acid is a key metabolite in the abscisic acid (ABA) catabolic pathway, playing a significant role in plant stress physiology and hormone regulation. This high-purity reference standard is essential for researchers and manufacturers requiring precise analytical and biochemical applications. It is particularly valuable for the agrochemical, plant biotechnology, and pharmaceutical research sectors focused on plant growth, development, and stress response mechanisms.

Application

• Phytochemical Reference Standard: Used as a high-purity standard for the identification and quantification of abscisic acid metabolites in plant tissues via HPLC, LC-MS, or GC-MS analysis.
• Plant Hormone Research: Critical for studying the catabolism and signaling pathways of abscisic acid (ABA) in plant stress responses, including drought, salinity, and cold tolerance.
• Agrochemical Development: Serves as a biochemical tool in the research and development of novel plant growth regulators and stress-mitigating compounds.
• Biochemical Synthesis: Acts as a key intermediate or precursor in the synthesis of related plant hormone analogs for research purposes.
• Academic & Institutional Research: Employed in university and government laboratories for fundamental research in plant biology, biochemistry, and molecular physiology.
