CAS 2134-29-4
:Reuterin
Description:
Reuterin, with the CAS number 2134-29-4, is a bioactive compound produced by certain strains of Lactobacillus reuteri, a probiotic bacterium. It is primarily known for its antimicrobial properties, which allow it to inhibit the growth of various pathogenic bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Reuterin is a low-molecular-weight compound, specifically a 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde, and is characterized by its ability to disrupt cellular processes in target microorganisms, leading to their death or growth inhibition. This compound is soluble in water and exhibits stability under certain conditions, making it a potential candidate for use in food preservation and therapeutic applications. Additionally, reuterin has been studied for its role in gut health and its potential benefits in modulating the microbiome. Its safety profile is generally favorable, as it is produced by a naturally occurring probiotic, but further research is ongoing to fully understand its mechanisms of action and potential applications in health and disease management.
