castor oil

Castor oil (Xenaderm) is a vegetable oil pressed from the seeds of the castor bean, Ricinus communis, used as a laxative and as an excipient in medicinally.

Ethoxylated hydrogenated castor oil is a combination of synthetic polyethylene glycol (PEG) with natural castor oil. Ethoxylated hydrogenated castor oil can be used to emulsify and solubilize oil-in-water (o/w) emulsions.

Sulfonated castor oil is a biochemical reagent that can be used as a biomaterial for life science related research and as a sulfonylation reagent for organic synthesis and drug discovery.

Cremophor EL is a nonionic surfactant. cremophor EL inhibits cellular metabolism and suppresses UGT1A1-mediated rhodopsin glucuronidation.

Ricinoleic acid is a naturally occurring 12-hydroxy fatty acid. It constitutes about 90% of the fatty acids in castor oil. Pyrrolidine Ricinoleamide is a derivative of the amide of ricinoleic acid that shows potent antiproliferative activity against an array of cancer cell lines, including human glioma U251 cells.

ADL 08-0011 is an active metabolite of the μ-opioid receptor antagonist alvimopan. It is produced from alvimopan via amide hydrolysis by gut microbiota. ADL 08-0011 is a μ-opioid receptor antagonist (Ki = 0.25 nM). It is selective for μ-opioid receptors over κ- and δ-opioid receptors (Kis = 15.8 and 31.6 nM, respectively). ADL 08-0011 inhibits endomorphin 1-induced inhibition of electrically induced contraction of isolated guinea pig ileum (pA2 = 9.4). In vivo, ADL 08-0011 (0.03-1 mg/kg) reverses loperamide-induced delayed gastric emptying in a rat model of castor oil-induced diarrhea.

Racecadotril-d5 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of racecadotril by GC- or LC-MS. Racecadotril is a prodrug form of the neprilysin (NEP) inhibitor thiorphan. In vivo, racecadotril reduces or prevents castor oil-induced diarrhea without delaying intestinal transit in rats when administered at doses of 80 or 100 mg/kg, respectively. It also decreases the duration of diarrhea and increases body weight gain in a neonatal gnotobiotic pig model of human rotavirus-induced diarrhea. Formulations containing racecadotril have been used in the treatment of acute diarrhea.

Ricinoleic acid is a natural product that constitutes about 90% of the fatty acids in castor oil.

Methyl ricinoleate (Standard) is the standard substance of Methyl ricinoleate, and it is applicable for quantitative analysis, quality control, and related research in biochemical experiments. Methyl ricinoleate is a compound classified under fatty acid methyl esters. It is derived from ricinoleic acid, a mono-unsaturated omega-9 fatty acid found in castor oil. Methyl ricinoleate is commonly utilized as a reference compound for fatty acid methyl esters in gas chromatography analysis. Its potential applications have also been explored in biofuels and as an ingredient in the production of biodegradable plastics and surfactants.
