Amentoflavone (Standard)

Amentoflavone (Standard) is the analytical standard of Amentoflavone. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Amentoflavone (Didemethyl-ginkgetin) is a potent and orally active GABA (A) negative modulator. Amentoflavone also shows anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, anti-viral, anti-tumor, anti-radiation, anti-fungal, antibacterial activity. Amentoflavone induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at sub-G1 phase[1][2][3][4].
