    Product Description

    Coniferin is a phenylpropanoid glycoside and a lignan precursor that has been found in V. album and has diverse biological activities.1,2,3 It inhibits ADP-induced platelet aggregation in isolated human platelet-rich plasma when used at concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 1 µM.1 Coniferin has antioxidant activity in an oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay.2 It induces contractions in isolated rat aortic rings when used at concentrations ranging from 0.001 to 1 mM.3 In vivo, coniferin (1 mg/kg) increases blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats.4

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
