Description
5-Methylfurfural (Standard) is the analytical standard of 5-Methylfurfural. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. 5-Methylfurfural is a chemical that can be utilized as food additive, intermediate in the production of agrochemicals, and precursor of certain anti-cancer natural products. 5-Methylfurfural is formed during the photoexposition of ranitidine hydrochloride. 5-Methylfurfural is an organic compound. 5-Methylfurfural has a strong tendency to be further hydrogenated to 2,5-dimethylfuran (DMF) . 5-Methylfurfural can predominantly evoke skin inflammation and barrier disintegration. 5-Methylfurfural degrades native DNA through the formation of single-strand breaks[1][2][3][4][5].
