Description
Swainsonine is a natural secondary plant substance offered at a minimum purity of 98 % for biochemical and natural-product research. Identified by CAS number 72741-87-8 and the empirical formula C₈H₁₅NO₃, it has a molar mass of 173,21 g/mol, supporting clear substance identification in laboratory documentation. This indolizidine alkaloid is Material from manufacturer Carl ROTH fits workflows in secondary plant metabolite studies, glycoprotein-related investigations, and broader biochemical screening where defined purity and reliable identity data matter. The compact unit quantity allows economical use while maintaining traceability through established CAS and molar-mass parameters. Laboratories working with natural products and plant-derived biochemicals can integrate this reagent into standard weighing, dissolution, and analytical protocols without ambiguity over chemical identity. Consistent specification data help align purchasing, inventory, and experimental records across research and quality-control environments.

Questions about Swainsonine, min. 98 %, 5 mg
What is this article?
Swainsonine, min. 98 %, 5 mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Natural products & phytochemicals, inside Natural products & essential oils, in Lab chemicals.
A phytochemical or natural product is a defined compound, or a characterised extract, from a biological source. A pure alkaloid and a crude extract of the plant are different articles. The stated content of the marker, and the source species, are what is being bought.
A natural product is a molecule extracted from a plant, an animal or a microorganism, or a mixture of those molecules. An essential oil is the volatile fraction. The useful specification is the source species, the plant part and, where it exists, the stated content of a marker compound. Two oils with the same common name are not the same article. Marker compounds are identified on PubChem and named by IUPAC.
