Description

Beta-D-gentiobiosyl crocetin (BGC) is an isolated natural product that belongs to the group of secondary metabolites. It can be found as a glycoside in the bark of plants of the genus Crocus. BGC has been shown to have antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, which may be due to its ability to scavenge free radicals and inhibit bacterial growth. This product is used as a reference material for HPLC standards and for screening purposes.
