  • Applications

    Ganoderol A (CAS 104700-97-2) is a lanostane-type triterpenoid isolated from Ganoderma species and is mainly of interest as a target in natural product chemistry and bioactivity research. Real-world applications are typically in research and development contexts, including use as an analytical reference standard for LC-MS/GC-MS profiling of triterpenoids, and as a synthetic intermediate or building block for more complex triterpenoid scaffolds. In cosmetics and personal care, it may be evaluated as a bioactive ingredient candidate in formulated products within development programs. In pharmaceutical research, Ganoderol A is commonly studied for its biological activity in vitro to understand structure-activity relationships and to support lead-finding efforts, under appropriate regulatory and formulation constraints. It may also be explored in interdisciplinary studies linking natural product chemistry with formulation science, but its commercial use is currently limited and subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
