Cucurbitacin B (Standard) is the analytical standard of Cucurbitacin B, intended for research and analytical applications. It is a highly oxidized tetracyclic triterpenoid and is orally active. Cucurbitacin B has been shown to inhibit tumor cell growth, migration, and invasion, induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, and possess potent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antiviral, hypoglycemic, hepatoprotective, and neuroprotective activities. It is used as a reference standard in qualitative, quantitative, and methodological research experiments such as HPLC, GC, and MS.
