Description

Brevetoxin C is a potent marine neurotoxin belonging to the class of cyclic polyether compounds. It is a critical reference standard and research chemical for studying harmful algal blooms (HABs) and their associated toxins. This high-purity compound is essential for researchers and laboratories in environmental monitoring, toxicology, and marine science. Brevetoxin C CAS NO 82983-92-4 is used to develop detection methods, understand toxin mechanisms, and calibrate analytical instrumentation.

Application

• Marine Toxin Research: Fundamental studies on the structure, biosynthesis, and biological activity of brevetoxins.
• Environmental Monitoring & Harmful Algal Bloom (HAB) Analysis: Serves as a certified reference material (CRM) for the detection and quantification of brevetoxins in seawater and shellfish.
• Toxicology & Mechanism Studies: Investigation of neurotoxic effects, particularly on voltage-gated sodium channels, and associated health impacts.
• Analytical Method Development & Validation: Used as a primary standard to calibrate equipment like LC-MS/MS and HPLC for accurate toxin analysis.
• Food Safety Testing: Quality control and regulatory testing for shellfish and seafood to prevent Neurotoxic Shellfish Poisoning (NSP).
• Pharmaceutical & Biomedical Research: Exploration of toxin-receptor interactions for potential therapeutic or diagnostic applications.
