Description

Abscisicacidmethylester CAS NO 7200-31-9 is a methylated derivative of the essential plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA), offering enhanced stability and specific biological activity. This compound is a critical research tool and active ingredient for studying and manipulating plant stress responses, particularly drought tolerance and seed dormancy. It is primarily utilized by agrochemical R&D laboratories, plant physiology researchers, and manufacturers developing next-generation plant growth regulators and biostimulants.

Application

• Plant Physiology Research: A key standard and probe for investigating ABA signaling pathways, stomatal closure mechanisms, and gene expression related to abiotic stress.
• Agrochemical Formulation: Serves as a stable synthetic analog in the development of novel plant growth regulators aimed at improving crop water-use efficiency and drought resistance.
• Seed Technology: Used in studies to control seed dormancy and germination, supporting the development of seed treatment products for synchronized germination.
• Biostimulant Production: Incorporated as an active component in advanced biostimulant formulations designed to enhance plant resilience under environmental stress conditions.
• Horticulture & Floriculture: Applied in research to manage plant growth, delay senescence, and improve post-harvest quality in ornamental plants and fruits.
• Biochemical Synthesis: Acts as a crucial intermediate or reference standard in the organic synthesis of more complex ABA analogs and related compounds.
