Arbutin (Cat No.: I003747) is a triterpenoid compound present in natural plants, which has various biological effects such as sedative, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, anti-diabetic, anti-ulcer, and lowering blood sugar. In recent years, it has been found that it has anti-carcinogenic, anti-cancer, induction of F9 teratoma cell differentiation and anti-angiogenesis effects, and it is very likely to become a new type of anticancer drug with low toxicity and high efficiency. In addition, Arbutin has obvious antioxidant function, so it is widely used as a raw material for medicine and cosmetics.
