N-tert-Butyl-alpha-phenylnitrone, 97%

Description

N-tert-Butyl-a-phenylnitrone is a commonly-used free radical trap. It contains radical scavenging activity and an ability to inhibit Cox-2 (cyclooxygenase-2). N-tert-Butyl-a-phenylnitrone is an antioxidant that has been shown to act as a protective agent in several experimental models of neurodegenerative disorders. N-tert-Butyl-a-phenylnitrone inhibits lipid peroxidation in rat liver microsomes. It also prevents the induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) by reactive oxygen species.
