Produktinformation

• Name: R-Prunasin
• Synonyme: (a-R)-a-(b-D-Glucopyranosyloxy)benzeneacetonitrile
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: R-Prunasin is a cyanogenic glycoside, which is a naturally occurring compound found in certain plants. It is primarily sourced from species within the Prunus genus, such as cherries and almonds. The mode of action of R-Prunasin involves its enzymatic hydrolysis by beta-glucosidase, leading to the release of hydrogen cyanide, benzaldehyde, and glucose. This reaction is a classical example of plant defense mechanisms against herbivores and pathogens.
