5-beta-hydroxy-19-oxodigitoxigenin - Introduction
Apoymarin (Apocymarin) is a natural compound extracted from Apocynum venetum. It is a white crystalline powder with a bitter taste.
Apocymarin has a certain application value in the field of medicine. It has been found to have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and anti-cardiovascular disease and other pharmacological activities. It can inhibit the growth and spread of tumor cells, and has certain potential for the treatment of malignant tumors such as lung cancer, breast cancer and liver cancer. In addition, Apocymarin also has the function of lowering blood lipids, lowering blood pressure and anti-platelet aggregation.
The preparation method of Apocymarin is more complicated. The total saponins are usually extracted from the poisonous whorl first, and then Apocymarin is obtained after repeated extraction and separation and purification. The specific preparation method can be adjusted according to different experimental conditions and requirements.
Regarding safety information, Apocymarin is a natural product and is generally considered to have a certain degree of safety. However, as a chemical substance, it is still necessary to follow the corresponding safety operation specifications when used. When performing experiments or applications, care should be taken to avoid contact with skin, eyes and mouth. At the same time, the toxicology of Apocymarin is still relatively limited, so it should be used with caution and follow the doctor's advice in large doses or for long-term use.
