Product Description
Mechanism of Action
Gaiacyle nicotinamide (guaiacyl nicotinamide) is a nicotinamide derivative combining a guaiacyl (o‑methoxyphenol) moiety with the nicotinamide scaffold, providing redox‑active and antioxidant properties along with potential modulation of NAD⁺/NADH‑related pathways.
Benefits and Advantages
Used in antioxidant research, NAD‑dependent enzyme studies, redox‑signalling assays and structure–activity work on nicotinamide analogues.
Side Effects and Risks
Data are limited; potential risks include hepatic load, GI upset and idiosyncratic hypersensitivity at high concentrations. Handle as an experimental redox‑active small molecule.
