Flunisolide (hemihydrate) (Standard)

• UNSPSC Description:

  Flunisolide (hemihydrate) (Standard) is the analytical standard of Flunisolide (hemihydrate). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Flunisolide hemihydrate is a corticosteroid, which is an orally active glucocorticoid receptor activator with anti-inflammatory activity. Flunisolide hemihydrate can induce eosinophil apoptosis, and is used for the research of asthma or rhinitis, and inflammation[1][2].
