6-Hydroxymyosmine（Cat No.:I021005）is a hydroxylated derivative of myosmine, a nicotine-related compound found in tobacco. It is formed during the metabolic breakdown of nicotine and is considered a potential biomarker for tobacco exposure. This compound has been studied for its role in the formation of harmful nitrosamines in the body, which are carcinogenic. 6-Hydroxymyosmine is of interest in research on tobacco-related diseases, particularly in understanding the mechanisms behind nicotine metabolism and the potential long-term health risks associated with smoking. Its specific effects and significance in human health are still under investigation.
