(+)-Catechin Monohydrate is a high-purity flavonoid compound widely used in nutritional, biochemical, pharmaceutical, and antioxidant research. It is a natural polyphenolic antioxidant found in various plant-based foods and beverages, including tea, cocoa, fruits, and wine. This compound exhibits a variety of biological activities, including free radical scavenging, enzyme modulation, and cardioprotective effects.
Supplied as a white to light brown powder, this product meets stringent purity and analytical standards, making it suitable for applications in research and analytical chemistry. It is soluble in hot ethanol (5%) and is characterized by a specific optical rotation of +24° to +28°, confirming its chiral purity.
Key Features
- High purity: ≥96.0% by HPLC
- Controlled moisture content: ≤8% loss on drying
- Defined specific optical rotation (+24° to +28°)
- Supplied as white to light brown crystalline powder
- Soluble in hot ethanol (5%)
- For research use in antioxidant, enzymatic, and flavonoid-related studies
- GHS07-labeled as an irritant—use appropriate PPE during handling
Applications
- Antioxidant activity assays and radical scavenging studies
- Nutraceutical and dietary polyphenol research
- Studies of flavonoid metabolism and bioavailability
- Analytical HPLC method development for plant phenolics
- Ingredient in biochemical assays and enzyme inhibition studies
