General description

Retinol or vitamin A alcohol is the main circulating form of vitamin A.

Application

Retinol has been used:
  • as a standard in peak identification and quantification in reverse phase HPLC
  • as a standard to estimate the concentration of vitamin A
  • to study the inhibitory effect of retinol on murine norovirus (MNV) replication in murine RAW 264.7 cells
  • as a component in the reaction mixture for the lecithin:retinol acyltransferase (LRAT) assay

Biochem/physiol Actions

Retinal, retinol and retinoic acid are the aldehyde, alcohol and acid forms of vitamin A. The retinoids exist as many geometric isomers due to the unsaturated bonds in the aliphatic chain.
Retinol is biological active in a wide range of processes.
It is not biologically active and works as a precursor of active retinoids. Retinol is converted to retinaldehyde and subsequently to retinoic acid.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.
