Product Data Sheet
Tocol
Catalog No. A74510
Tocol is a synthetic derivative of vitamin E that functions as an endogenous metabolite. Unlike (±)-α-tocopherol, Tocol does not inhibit retinol-induced erythrocyte hemolysis or enhance the microviscosity of rat liver phosphatidylcholine liposomes. This unique profile makes Tocol a valuable tool for research focused on cellular membrane dynamics and vitamin E metabolism. Its distinct biological activity may offer insights into the mechanistic roles of vitamin E derivatives in various physiological contexts.
