Description

1-Hexanol is used as a precursor to plasticizers, chemical intermediate for pharmaceuticals, perfume esters and antiseptics. Further, it serves as a perturbing agent on actomyosin adenosine triphosphatease. In addition to this, it is used to modulate the function of actomyosin motor.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
