Oleuropein, 100 mg

Oleuropein is a bioactive phenolic glycoside naturally abundant in olive leaves and extra virgin olive oil, widely investigated for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and cytoprotective properties. This 100 mg powdered reagent from STEMCELL Technologies supports in vitro cell culture and pharmacological research applications.

Researchers commonly apply it to studies of apoptosis induction, neuroprotection in neuronal models, modulation of oxidative stress markers, and regulation of stem cell differentiation pathways. The compound dissolves readily in DMSO and ethanol, enabling preparation of concentrated stock solutions applied to cultured cells at micromolar working concentrations. Storage at -20 degrees C preserves long-term stability of the lyophilized powder, which should be protected from light and moisture.

Typical applications include differentiation assays for neural and cardiac lineages, evaluation of lipid metabolism in hepatocyte cultures, and investigation of Nrf2-mediated antioxidant responses. For research use only.
