Hypoxanthine (Purin-6-ol), also known as purine-6-ol or Hyp. Hypoxanthine is a naturally occurring purine derivative and a reaction intermediate in the metabolism of adenosine and in the formation of nucleic acids by the nucleotide salvage pathway. Under normal circumstances hypoxanthine is readily converted to uric acid.hypoxanthine is first oxidized to xanthine, which is further oxidized to uric acid by xanthine oxidase.

Hypoxanthine (Standard) is the standard reference of Hypoxanthine, suitable for quantitative analysis, quality control and biochemical research. Hypoxanthine, also known as purine-6-ol or Hyp, is a naturally occurring purine derivative and an intermediate in the formation of nucleic acids via the adenosine metabolism and nucleotide salvage pathways. Under normal physiological conditions, hypoxanthine is readily converted into uric acid, which is further oxidized from hypoxanthine to xanthine and then to uric acid by xanthine oxidase.
