Stability Hygroscopic
Applications Retrorsine N-oxide is a pyrrolizidine alkaloid that is naturally found in Senecio isatideus, a flowering plant that is native to the Netherlands. Retrorsine N-oxide is also known to raise blood pressure and can induce abnormal changes in the liver if ingested by animals or humans.
Not a dangerous good if item is equal to or less than 1g/ml and there is less than 100g/ml in the package

Retrorsine N-oxide is a synthetic pyrrolizidine alkaloid derivative, which is meticulously synthesized in the laboratory. It originates from the structural modification of naturally occurring alkaloids found in certain plant species of the Senecio genus. The mode of action of Retrorsine N-oxide involves its biotransformation into reactive intermediates that form adducts with cellular macromolecules, particularly within the liver. These interactions result in the inhibition of cellular division and protein synthesis, significantly affecting hepatocyte function.
