Product Description: HTHQ (Standard) is the analytical standard of HTHQ. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. HTHQ (1-O-hexyl-2,3,5-trimethylhydroquinone) is a potent lipophilic phenolic antioxidant. HTHQ has considerable anti-oxidative activity by directly reacting with reactive oxygen species (ROS) and scavenging ROS to form more stable free radicals[1][2].
