Uridine (CAS 58-96-8) is a naturally - occurring nucleoside. Chemically, it consists of a uracil linked to a ribose ring (β-D-ribofuranose) via a β-N1 - glycosidic bond. It has a molecular formula of C₉H₁₂N₂O₆ and a molecular weight of 244.2 g/mol. The compound appears as a white to off - white crystalline powder.
Uridine is water - soluble to a certain extent, which allows it to be easily incorporated into aqueous solutions for various applications. It has a melting point in the range of 165 - 167°C. The purity of our factory - supplied uridine is typically above 98%, ensuring high - quality product performance.
Uridine has multiple important uses in different fields:
1. Pharmaceutical Field: In the pharmaceutical industry, uridine is a key intermediate in the synthesis of various drugs. It plays an important role in the development of antiviral and anti - cancer drugs. It can also be used in the treatment of certain neurological disorders as it is involved in the synthesis of phospholipids in the brain, which are crucial for maintaining normal brain function.
2. Food and Beverage Industry: Uridine is added to some functional foods and beverages. It is considered a beneficial nutrient that can contribute to cognitive function, energy metabolism, and overall well - being. It can be used to enhance the nutritional value of products targeted at consumers seeking improved mental performance and vitality.
3. Cosmetics Industry: Due to its role in cell repair and metabolism, uridine is used in some high - end cosmetic products. It can help improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and promote a healthier complexion.
1. Laboratory Use: In a laboratory setting, uridine is often dissolved in an appropriate solvent (such as water or buffer solution) for biochemical experiments. The concentration of the solution depends on the specific experiment requirements. For example, in enzyme - catalyzed reactions, the typical working concentration of uridine may range from 0.1 mM to 10 mM.
2. Pharmaceutical Production: When used as a raw material in pharmaceutical production, uridine is accurately weighed and added to the reaction system according to the production process. Stringent quality control measures are required during the process to ensure the purity and stability of the final drug product.
3. Food and Beverage Addition: For use in food and beverage products, uridine is added in accordance with relevant food safety regulations. The addition amount usually needs to be optimized through sensory evaluation and nutritional analysis to ensure product quality and consumer acceptance.
1. Pharmaceutical Case: A pharmaceutical company was developing an antiviral drug. By using our high - purity uridine as an intermediate, they were able to achieve a high yield in the synthesis process. The final drug product showed excellent antiviral activity in pre - clinical trials. The stability of the drug was also improved due to the high - quality uridine, which reduced the risk of degradation during storage.
2. Food and Beverage Case: A health food company added uridine to their energy - enhancing beverage. After conducting consumer surveys, they found that consumers reported improved mental clarity and reduced fatigue after regular consumption of the beverage. The addition of uridine also enhanced the product's market competitiveness, leading to an increase in sales volume.
3. Cosmetics Case: A cosmetic brand incorporated uridine into their anti - aging cream. Clinical trials showed that after using the cream for 8 weeks, 70% of the participants reported a visible reduction in the depth of fine lines and an improvement in skin elasticity. This positive result helped the brand gain a good reputation in the market.
