Sorbic acid
Catalog No: CFN90061
Sorbic acid is important food preservatives and powerful fungistatic agents, it inhibits various bacteria, including sporeformers, at various stages of their life cycle (germination, outgrowth and cell division). Sorbic acid is a more potent uncoupler of the membrane potential than acetic acid, the effect may also slow the rate of ATP synthesis significantly and may thus (partially) explain Sorbic acid's effectiveness.
Soyasaponin Ab
Catalog No: CFN90773
Soyasaponin Ab may represent a viable candidate for effective vaccine adjuvant, TLR4 receptor dependent pathway may be involved in immune stimulatory effects of soyasaponin Ab. Soyasaponin Ab has anti-inflammatory effects, it can inhibit colon shortening, myeloperoxidase activity, the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and activation of the transcription factor nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB); soyasaponin Ab (1, 2, 5, and 10 μM) can inhibit the production of NO (IC50 = 1.6 ± 0.1 uM) and prosta. Soyasaponin Aa and Ab can markedly inhibit adipocyte differentiation and expression of various adipogenic marker genes through the downregulation of the adipogenesis-related transcription factors PPARγ and C/EBPα in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. They also can prevent scopolamine-induced memory impairment in mice without the inhibition of acetylcholinesterase, exhibit memory-enhancing effects.
