Description

Matrine (CAS 519-02-8 ) is a naturally derived alkaloid extracted from Sophora root, recognized in agricultural and pharmaceutical sourcing under the designation NSC-146051. It functions as a bioactive agent with preservation, stabilization, and UV-protective properties across multiple formulated product categories. In agricultural formulations, it is used as a botanical biopesticide. It is incorporated into crop protection products where synthetic chemical restrictions apply or where organic certification is required. Personal care formulators incorporate it into UV-protective and antioxidant products. This is particularly common in markets where plant-derived actives are preferred over synthetic stabilizers. In pharmaceutical and nutraceutical development, it serves as a reference compound and active ingredient. It is a candidate in finished dosage form research. Agricultural feed applications also utilize matrine-based preparations as a natural preservative component to extend product stability and shelf life. The product is supplied as a white to off-white crystalline powder. It is available in varying purity grades, with high-purity specifications commonly used in pharmaceutical and research applications. Lower-purity technical grades serve agricultural and industrial formulation needs. Packaging options typically range from small research quantities to bulk kilogram-scale orders depending on requirements. Contact us for supply of Matrine Request Quote
