Product Information

• Name: Cardol triene
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Cardol triene is a bioactive phenolic lipid, which is derived from the natural oil found in the shell of cashew nuts (Anacardium occidentale). This compound is of significant scientific interest due to its unique structural characteristics and biological activities. Cardol triene acts through multiple mechanisms, primarily displaying potent antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. The phenolic nature of cardol triene allows it to interact with microbial cell membranes, destabilizing their structure, which leads to cell death. Its antioxidant activity is attributed to the presence of multiple double bonds, enabling the scavenging of free radicals.
