    Streptonigrin

    $240.00 - $837.00
    Streptonigrin is an unusual aminoquinone with broad biological activity against bacteria, fungi, nematodes, viruses and tumor cells. Streptonigrin acts as a bioreductive agent, highly dependent on interactions with metal ions, notably iron, and plays an important role in free radical production through redox cycling of NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1).

    Streptonigrin is soluble in DMF and DMSO and is moderately soluble in methanol or ethanol.
    Molecular FormulaC25H22N4O8
