2,3-Butanediol

• Description:

  2,3-Butanediol is microbially derived compound that is a discriminating urinary biomarker of Fmo5-/- mice. 2,3-Butanediol prevents age-related increases in the plasma concentration of cholesterol. 2,3-Butanediol has potential applications in the manufacture of printing inks, perfumes, fumigants, moistening and softening agents, plasticizers, and as a carrier for pharmaceuticals[1][2].
