CAS No.: 24034-73-9; Geranylgeraniol. PROPERTIES: Geranylgeraniol (all-trans-geranylgeraniol) is a polyprenol with molecular formula C30H50O and molar mass 422.7 g/mol. It appears as colorless to pale yellow oil with characteristic terpene odor. The compound is highly lipophilic, miscible with most organic solvents but insoluble in water. Recommended storage is at 2-8 C in amber glass bottles to prevent photooxidation. Safety precautions include avoiding contact with strong oxidizers and using spark-proof equipment during handling due to its flash point of approximately 200 C. APPLICATIONS: Geranylgeraniol serves as a nutritional supplement with potential cholesterol-lowering effects, as demonstrated in Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry clinical pilot studies. In cell biology research, it functions as a membrane fluidity modifier, with Biophysical Journal articles describing its impact on lipid raft organization. For regenerative medicine applications, geranylgeraniol promotes stem cell proliferation and differentiation, as reported in Stem Cells and Development mechanistic investigations. Additionally, the compound is utilized in cosmetic formulations for its skin conditioning properties, with International Journal of Cosmetic Science publications detailing its moisturizing effects and compatibility with various skin types.
