Tetrachlorohydroquinone (Standard)

Tetrachlorohydroquinone (Standard) is the analytical standard of Tetrachlorohydroquinone (HY-W144308) . This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Tetrachlorohydroquinone (TCHQ) is a metabolite of Pentachlorophenol. Tetrachlorohydroquinone induces reactive oxidant stress (ROS), inhibits apoptosis and induces necrosis in primary mouse splenocytes. Tetrachlorohydroquinone increases DNA lesions and induces oxidative stress in rodents[1].
