Description

Paraherquamide is a potent anthelmintic and insecticidal compound belonging to the class of indole diterpenoid alkaloids. Its unique mode of action, targeting invertebrate-specific glutamate-gated chloride channels, makes it a valuable tool for research and development in parasitology and agrochemical science. This high-purity compound is essential for researchers in pharmaceutical discovery, veterinary medicine, and agricultural chemistry seeking novel solutions for pest and parasite control.

Application

• Pharmacological Research: A key reference standard and active compound for studying novel anthelmintic mechanisms of action and resistance.
• Veterinary Parasiticide Development: Serves as a lead structure for developing new treatments against nematode infections in livestock and companion animals.
• Agrochemical Research: Investigated for its potential as a bio-insecticidal agent or as a template for creating new crop protection products.
• Biochemical Assays: Used in in vitro and in vivo assays to screen for activity against parasitic organisms.
• Academic & Institutional Studies: Employed in universities and research institutes for fundamental studies in neurobiology and invertebrate physiology.
• Standards & Metrology: Acts as a certified reference material (CRM) for quality control and analytical method development in related industries.

Quality Control

Our Paraherquamide is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods (NMR, MS), to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, guaranteeing traceability, purity, and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at 2-8°C. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container should be kept in a desiccated environment. For long-term storage, consider storing under an inert atmosphere.
