Ginkgolic acid C15:1 is a naturally occurring alkylphenol found in ginkgo trees. It is primarily used in botanical and agricultural research, particularly in studies focusing on plant defense mechanisms against microbial infection and herbivory. In phytochemistry, ginkgolic acid C15:1 is studied for its role in the complex mixture of phytochemicals that contribute to the unique properties of ginkgo extracts. Researchers also investigate the compound′s allelopathic effects, where it may inhibit the growth of surrounding plant species, thus affecting biodiversity and plant community dynamics. In research related to natural products, ginkgolic acid C15:1 is examined for its potential as a lead compound for the development of bioactive substances. Additionally, its presence in ginkgo products is monitored due to its allergenic potential, which is significant for understanding environmental and health impacts. The specificity of the C15:1 side chain in ginkgolic acid provides a particular interest for researchers studying the structure-activity relationship of these compounds.

Do you have any solubility information of this compound?

Asked by: two2igm05
Thank you for your question. Ginkgolic acid C15:1 is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, DMSO, and dimethyl formamide (DMF), which should be purged with an inert gas. The solubility of ginkgolic acid C15:1 in ethanol and DMF is approximately 50 mg/ml and approximately 30 mg/ml in DMSO. Ginkgolic acid C15:1 is sparingly soluble in aqueous buffers. For maximum solubility in aqueous buffers, ginkgolic acid C15:1 should first be dissolved in ethanol and then diluted with the aqueous buffer of choice. Ginkgolic acid C15:1 has a solubility of approximately 0.5 mg/ml in a 1:1 solution of ethanol:PBS (pH 7.2) using this method. We do not recommend storing the aqueous solution for more than one day. If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact our Technical Service department by calling 800-457-3801 option 2, emailing scbt@scbt.com, or using the Live Chat function on our website.
