Product Description: Benzylacyclouridine (Standard) is the analytical standard of Benzylacyclouridine. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Benzylacyclouridine (BAU) is a potent and specific inhibitor of uridine phosphorylase, the first enzyme in the catabolism of uridine. Benzylacyclouridine can modulate the cytotoxic side effects of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and its derivatives[1][2][3].
Formula: C14H16N2O4
