formaldehyde

tert-Butyl (4R-cis)-6-formaldehydel-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4-acetate is a useful organic compound for research related to life sciences. The catalog number is T65553 and the CAS number is 124752-23-4.

Paraformaldehyde is a compound that can be utilized as a biological material or organic compound in life science research.

Ethyleneurea (Imidazolidinone) is used as a formaldehyde scavenger and intermediate.

1,3-Dithiane (1,3-Dithian) is a protected formaldehyde anion equivalent that could serve as a useful labeled synthon. 1,3-Dithiane is also a sulfur-containing Maillard reaction products found in boiled beef extracts.

2-Hydroxyisobutyric acid (α-Hydroxyisobutyric acid) is a metabolite of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE). MTBE may be obtained through environmental exposure. MTBE is rapidly eliminated from the body, mainly through expired air as the unchanged compound. MTBE is to some extent metabolised to t-butyl alcohol (TBA) and formaldehyde and oxidised to 2-methyl-1,2-propanediol and a-hydroxy isobuturic acid. 2-Hydroxyisobutyric acid has been used as an arial bactericide.

Diazolidinyl urea (Germall II) is a formaldehyde-releasing preservative used in cosmetics and personal-care products,

Compound 48 80 trihydrochloride (C48 80 trihydrochloride) is a mixture of N-methyl-p-methoxyphenethylamine and formaldehyde produced via a condensation reaction. It acts as a mast cell degranulator and histamine releaser and inhibits phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C activity in human platelets.

Polynoxylin is an antiseptic. It is used for local treatment of the skin and the mouth.

Tetrahydrofolic acid trihydrochloride (L-5,6,7,8-Tetrahydrofolic acid trihydrochloride) is a biologically active vitamin B9 derivative, a receptor for free formaldehyde, and an effective suicide substrate for mushroom tyrosinase, inhibiting indole ethylamine methylation by methyl-tetrahydrofolate.

Spinacine has been isolated from spinach and the roots of Panax ginseng. This conformationally constrained amino acid is a structural element in certain biologically active compounds as glucagon antagonists and angiotensin II receptor antagonists. Spinacine can be inserted as a His replacement with a locked imidazole moiety for elucidating the role of the lateral heterocycle in the activity of a peptide.

12-Hydroxydodecanoic acid (12-hydroxylauric acid) is the substrate of the human glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase.

Taraxasterol acetate has anti-inflammatory activity in bino rats against carrageenan, formaldehyde and adjuvant induced inflammations. Taraxasterol acetate also displays potential antibacterial activities.

WEHI-150 is an analog of mitoxantrone, a DNA interstrand cross-linker (t1 2=12.5 h). WEHI-150 is capable of forming covalent adducts on CpG sequences, with a particular preference for methylated CpG sites. Formaldehyde-activated WEHI-150 induces DNA interstrand cross-linking and blocks transcription in a concentration-dependent manner. WEHI-150 mediates the formation of covalent adducts that do not interact with guanine N-2 and forms adducts on new DNA sequences.

Bouin's solution is a composite fixative used in histology, composed of saturated picric acid, formaldehyde, and acetic acid.

Chromotropic acid (disodium dihydrate) is useful for formaldehyde detection.
