General description

Lupeol is a novel anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory dietary triterpene. They help in stabilizing phospholipid bilayers in plant cell membranes. In general, this group contains 28-29 carbons along with carbon-carbon double bonds, usually one in the sterol nucleus and at times a second in the alkyl side chain.

Application

It was used as reference standard in method development and validation of lupeol from Vernonia Cinerea using HPLC method.
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

Other Notes

This compound is commonly found in plants of the genus: glycyrrhiza sambucus
