CAS 64550-88-5: sinigrin monohydrate
Description:Sinigrin monohydrate, with the CAS number 64550-88-5, is a naturally occurring compound classified as a glucosinolate, primarily found in cruciferous vegetables such as mustard seeds, Brussels sprouts, and cabbage. It is a colorless to pale yellow crystalline solid that is soluble in water and has a slightly bitter taste. Sinigrin is known for its role in plant defense mechanisms and contributes to the characteristic flavor and pungency of mustard and related plants. Upon hydrolysis, sinigrin can yield glucose, sulforaphane, and other products, which are associated with various health benefits, including potential anticancer properties. The compound is stable under normal conditions but can decompose under extreme pH or temperature conditions. Sinigrin monohydrate is also of interest in food science and nutrition due to its bioactive properties and potential applications in functional foods. Its safety profile is generally considered acceptable, but like many compounds, it should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
