Description
Pregnenolone acetate is a steroidal acetate ester with CAS number 1778-02-5 and the empirical formula C₂₃H₃₄O₃. Supplied at a minimum purity of 95 %, it has a molar mass of 358,51 g/mol. This pregnenolone derivative is employed in steroid chemistry, intermediate and reference work, biosynthetic pathway studies, and analytical method development where a defined acetate-protected pregnenolone structure is required. quantity is practical for multi-step synthesis support, calibration inventories, and ongoing experimental series. Product from manufacturer Carl ROTH fits medicinal chemistry, biochemical research, and quality-control settings that depend on clear molecular identity and stated assay. Laboratories can use pregnenolone acetate for comparative steroid analysis, protocol optimisation, and exploratory routes built on the pregnane scaffold. Documented CAS number, empirical formula, molar mass, and minimum purity facilitate accurate reagent registration and reproducible handling across projects that call for this esterified steroid building block.

Questions about Pregnenolone acetate, min. 95 %, 50 g
What is this article?
Pregnenolone acetate, min. 95 %, 50 g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Lipids, steroids & fatty acids, inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Microbiology lab supplies.
A lipid, a steroid or a fatty acid is specified by chain length, saturation and purity. Esters and free acids are different compounds. Many are supplied in a small amount under inert gas because they oxidise. The physical form, oil or powder, follows from the structure.
A biochemical is a molecule of life, sold as a reagent: an amino acid, a sugar, a nucleotide, a lipid, an enzyme, an antibiotic. The difference from a bulk chemical is that the use is a biological one, and the impurities that matter are the ones that change that use. An enzyme is specified by activity, not only by mass. An antibiotic is specified by potency. Papers are on PubMed. Structures are on PubChem. Strains and lines that consume these reagents are at ATCC.
