Uracil

Uracil
Product Description

Uracil is important for the detoxification of many carcinogens and is also used to detoxify many drugs such as cannabinoids and opioids. Uracil can be used for drug delivery and as an intermediate to compounds used in anticancer drugs. Other derivatives are used in pesticides and antiphotosynthetic herbicides as well as in the synthesis of caffeine. Uracil is used as a coenzyme and allosteric regulator during biochemical reactions and for polysaccharide biosynthesis and transportation of sugars containing aldehydes.
