    Fusapyrone

    $263.50 - $919.50
    Fusapyrone is a broad spectrum antifungal metabolite isolated from several Fusarium species, first reported in 1994. Fusapyrone exhibits low zoo-toxicity as evidenced by a lack of toxicity against Artemia salina, and is a useful candidate for control of postharvest crop diseases. The structure of fusapyrone was revised in 2006.

    Fusapyrone is soluble in ethanol, methanol, DMF or DMSO. Poor water solubility.
