    Product Description

    Apigeninidin is a natural 3-deoxyanthocyanidin that can be isolated from leaves of sorghum.1 The synthesis of apigeninidin is increased, particularly in leaves of S. bicolor, after wounding or pathogen invasion, resulting in purple coloration.2 Apigeninidin has antibiotic and antifungal properties.3,4 It can be used to stain collagen fibers, muscles, and red blood cells in animal tissue sections.5

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
