Heneicosane (Standard)

Description

Heneicosane Standard is the analytical standard of Heneicosane HY-W089845 . This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Heneicosane is a royal-specific pheromone of insects such as subterranean termites and is an identification signal for queens and kings in termites. Heneicosane mediates royal recognition and the maintenance of social division of labor by being sensed by worker ants and triggering vibrations and antennal behaviors. Heneicosane can exert anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic activities by inhibiting the release of inflammatory mediators such as prostaglandins and cytokines . At the same time, Heneicosane can also inhibit the mycelial growth of aflatoxin-producing fungi and inhibit the production of aflatoxin. Heneicosane can be used in insect chemical ecology research to analyze the regulatory mechanism of termite social behavior, and is also a potential target for new anti-inflammatory drugs.
