Description

Pyridoxaloxime is a vital biochemical reagent and a derivative of vitamin B6, playing a crucial role in enzymatic and metabolic research. Its primary value lies in its function as a potent inhibitor of certain pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzymes, making it an essential tool for studying reaction mechanisms and metabolic pathways. This compound is particularly needed by research institutions, pharmaceutical R&D departments, and diagnostic manufacturers involved in biochemistry, enzymology, and the development of novel therapeutic agents.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a specific inhibitor to study the mechanisms of pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzymes, such as transaminases and decarboxylases.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Serves as a key intermediate or reference standard in the synthesis and analysis of vitamin B6 analogs and related pharmaceuticals.
• Diagnostic Reagents: Employed in the formulation of enzymatic assay kits for clinical diagnostics and research purposes.
• Metabolic Studies: Applied in laboratory investigations to modulate metabolic pathways for experimental analysis.
• Academic Research: A fundamental reagent in university and institutional labs for teaching and advanced research in biochemistry and molecular biology.

Quality Control

Our Pyridoxaloxime is produced under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity suitable for research applications. While specific grades (e.g., analytical standard, biochemical grade) are available, all material is characterized by techniques including HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere.
