3-Hydroxycarbofuran

3-Hydroxycarbofuran is a major metabolite of the insecticide Carbofuran and functions as a reversible acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor. This small molecule is utilized in neuroscience and toxicology research to study cholinesterase inhibition and the effects of carbamate pesticides in both in vitro enzymatic assays and in vivo models.
