tert-Butylhydroquinone, 97%

Description

CAS: 1948-33-0 | C10H14O2 | 166.22 g/mol

TBHQ was used to study the inactivation of barotolerant strains of Listeria monocytogenes and Escherichia coli. Environment friendly electrode materials for supercapacitors were attained by decorating the surface of graphene nanosheets with TBHQ. TBHQ is frequently used as a food preservative. Inhibition of oxidative rancidity in frozen cooked fish flakes by tert-butylhydroquinone. Nuclear factor E2-related factor 2-dependent antioxidant response element activation is by tert-butylhydroquinoneoccurring preferentially in Astrocytes conditions.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
