Informação sobre produto

• Nome: (-)-Epicatechin-pentaacetate
• Marca: Biosynth
• Descrição: (-)-Epicatechin-pentaacetate is a synthetic derivative of the naturally occurring flavonoid epicatechin. It is chemically modified through acetylation and is not sourced directly from nature but synthesized in laboratories. This derivative acts by altering the bioavailability and metabolic stability of the parent compound, epicatechin, due to its acetyl groups. Such modifications can enhance certain properties, potentially impacting biological processes differently compared to the unmodified molecule.Research on (-)-Epicatechin-pentaacetate primarily focuses on its potential interactions with various cellular pathways related to oxidative stress, inflammation, and possibly even vascular health, though these areas remain under investigation. This compound is used in experimental studies that explore the structure-activity relationship of epicatechin derivatives, aiming to better understand their biochemical mechanisms and potential therapeutic benefits. As such, it holds interest for scientists examining the properties of flavonoid compounds and their derivatives in various biological contexts.
