fucoxanthin

Fucoxanthin (all-trans-Fucoxanthin) is a marine carotenoid (natural product), a multifunctional bioactive molecule with oral activity and cell permeability. It exhibits anti-obesity, anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticancer activities, and is used in metabolic and tumor research.

19′-(Butanoyloxy)fucoxanthin is a commonly used biochemical reagent that can serve as a biomaterial or organic compound for life science research.

Fucoxanthin (Standard) is a reference standard for research and analysis in studies involving Fucoxanthin. Fucoxanthin (all-trans-Fucoxanthin) is a carotenoid that occurs naturally in certain algae. It is found as an accessory pigment in the chloroplasts of brown algae and most other heterokonts, giving them a brown or olive-green color.It shows anti-obesity, anti-oxidant, anti-diabetic, anticancer and anti-inflammatory activities.

Fucoxanthinol is a marine carotenoid metabolite derived from brown algae, known for its anticancer and anti-inflammatory properties. It acts as an inhibitor of fatty acid amide hydrolase 1 (with an IC50 of 42.38 μM) and N-acylethanolamine-hydrolyzing acid amidase (with an IC50 of 12.75 μM).
