Product Description: D-Saccharic acid 1,4-lactone hydrate is an orally active β-glucuronidase inhibitor (IC50=48.4 μM). D-Saccharic acid 1,4-lactone hydrate can be used as a standard agent compared with novel β-glucuronidase inhibitors. D-Saccharic acid 1,4-lactone hydrate possesses anticarcinogenic, detoxifying, and antioxidant properties[1][2].
Applications: Cancer-programmed cell death
Formula: C6H10O8
