Description
Schisandrin (CAS 7432-28-2, EC 694-563-5), also known as Schizandrin and Schisandrol, is a bioactive lignan extracted from Schisandra chinensis fruit. It carries no assigned E-code and is classified under pharmaceutical intermediates with the molecular formula C24H32O7.
In pharmaceutical and biotechnology applications, Schisandrin functions as an antioxidant intermediate, where its dibenzocyclooctadiene lignan structure enables free radical scavenging and supports hepatoprotective formulation development. It is used in the synthesis of standardised botanical extracts and as a reference compound in pharmacological research targeting oxidative stress pathways.
Schisandrin is supplied as a powder and is available in research and pharmaceutical-grade specifications suited to GMP-aligned procurement. Importation into the EU falls under HS code 29093090, and material is subject to REACH compliance requirements. Buyers should request a certificate of analysis confirming purity and batch traceability.
