General description

Brassinolide is a plant growth hormone and the most biologically active brassinosteroid (BR). It has been implicated in Auxin signaling. It has also been used for studying plant biosynthetic pathways.[1][2] Brassinolide might also regulate water-transport properties of cell membranes in Arabidopsis thaliana.[3]

Application

Brassinolide has been used as a plant growth hormone.[1]

Questions

  1. Please, can I know the solubility of brassinolide (B1439)? Thanks in advance. Best regards

    1 answer

    1. This product is not tested for solubility. However, a brief search of the literature reveals that this compound is soluble in the following:
      Chloroform at 10 mg/mL
      DMSO at 50 mg/mL with gentle warming
      Ethanol at 50 mg/mL with gentle warming
      Insoluble in water

      Note that this information has not been verified.
