Methyl (Z)-ferulate
Catalog No. A28017

Methyl (Z)-ferulate is a natural germination self-inhibitor primarily derived from the leaves of Tetragonia tetragonoides. It effectively blocks germination in rust fungi by reversibly inhibiting the degradation of the germination pore plug through modulation of existing enzyme activity. In addition to its antifungal properties, Methyl (Z)-ferulate exhibits antioxidant activity, demonstrating significant scavenging capabilities against DPPH and ABTS+ radicals. This compound is valuable for research applications focused on plant defense mechanisms and antioxidant strategies.
