Genistein (Standard) is the analytical standard of Genistein, a soy isoflavone. Intended for research and analytical applications, it acts as a chemotherapeutic agent by inhibiting multiple tyrosine kinases (e.g., EGFR), altering apoptosis, cell cycle, angiogenesis, and inhibiting metastasis. Commonly used in HPLC, GC, and MS experiments, it is a light yellow to yellow solid, with a molecular weight of 270.24. Classified as a flavonoid and phenol, its sources include plants and human gut microbiota metabolites.
