Dihydroartemisinic acid（Cat No.:M024016）is a precursor compound in the biosynthesis of artemisinin, a potent antimalarial agent derived from Artemisia annua. Known for its critical role in artemisinin production, it undergoes chemical and enzymatic transformations to yield the active drug. As an intermediate, dihydroartemisinic acid is valuable in research focused on improving artemisinin yields through synthetic biology or chemical engineering. Additionally, it has been studied for its standalone bioactivities, including potential anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects. Its importance lies in combating malaria and advancing artemisinin-based combination therapies.
