Product Description
Cytisine (CAS 485-35-8) is a high-purity natural quinolizidine alkaloid monomer isolated and purified from the mature seeds ofSophora japonica L.. With a standard 98% HPLC purity, Cytisine retains highly active natural biological structure and is widely recognized for its unique nerve regulation, metabolic balance and antioxidant properties. It serves as a high-value functional raw material for health supplement formulation, pharmaceutical intermediate research and biological pharmacological experiments, enjoying high recognition in global fine chemical and health care industries.
Different from ordinary crude sophora seed extracts containing multiple alkaloids and a large number of impurities, our Cytisine adopts low-temperature circulating extraction and multi-stage macroporous resin purification technology, combined with repeated recrystallization refinement. The advanced production process completely removes plant fibers, residual solvents, miscellaneous alkaloids and inorganic impurities, ensuring single and stable active composition. All production procedures comply with GMP purification standards, with strict full-index detection including heavy metals, microorganisms and residual solvents, solving the problems of unstable efficacy, low safety and inaccurate dosage of crude extracts, fully meeting high-end formula R&D and industrial production standards.
Cytisine has a similar molecular structure to nicotine, with high biological activity and mild properties. It can effectively regulate human nervous system activity, relieve mental fatigue, soothe nervous tension and improve sub-health problems such as poor mental state and listlessness caused by long-term stress and fatigue. Compared with irritating synthetic regulators, natural Cytisine features mild action, no dependence and high safety, suitable for long-term daily health conditioning.
In terms of metabolic regulation, Cytisine can effectively promote human metabolic circulation, regulate lipid metabolism balance, improve body metabolic efficiency, and assist in improving physical discomfort caused by metabolic disorders. It helps maintain a healthy body state, reduce fat accumulation, and provide gentle and effective metabolic conditioning support for sub-health groups.
Cytisine also has excellent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. It can scavenge excess free radicals in the body, inhibit cellular oxidative damage, reduce chronic mild inflammatory reactions, delay body aging, and enhance the body’s natural defense capacity. Long-term reasonable application helps improve overall physical quality and maintain stable internal environmental balance.
As an important pharmaceutical intermediate and experimental reagent, high-purity Cytisine is widely used in pharmacological research, nerve mechanism research and new drug development. Its stable molecular structure and accurate content provide reliable experimental data support for biomedical research and compound drug formula innovation.
Our premium Cytisine product is uniform white crystalline fine powder with delicate texture, loose and non-caking, odorless and free of abnormal impurities. Each batch is strictly tested by HPLC to guarantee 98% standard purity and stable batch consistency. It features good water solubility and excellent formula compatibility, which can be perfectly applied in health care capsules, tablets, solid beverages and laboratory precision experimental formulas.
