Molecular Formula: C22H24O4
Molecular Weight: 352.42
Appearance: White crystalline powder

• Antioxidant Activity: Scavenges free radicals, protects cells from oxidative stress, and delays skin aging.
• Anti-Inflammatory: Modulates inflammatory responses by inhibiting reactive oxygen species (ROS) production.
• Cytotoxic Potential: Inhibits the growth of certain cancer cell lines in vitro, similar to related taxamairins.
• Formulation Stabilizer: Improves the stability and shelf life of cosmetic and pharmaceutical products by preventing lipid oxidation.

Cosmetics & Personal Care: Premium anti-aging and antioxidant ingredient in serums, creams, and masks. Additive in sunscreens and after-sun care products to soothe UV-induced irritation.

Pharmaceutical Research: Lead compound for developing anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory agents. Research tool for studying diterpene biosynthesis.

Natural Product Chemistry: Reference standard for phytochemical studies of Taxus species and quality control of yew-derived products.
