Used as a biochemical reagent in cell culture and molecular biology research, particularly in studies involving cell growth, differentiation, and autophagy. It supports nucleic acid stability and protein synthesis in vitro. Commonly applied in aging research due to its role in promoting cellular renewal and longevity pathways. Also investigated for use in cosmetic formulations for skin regeneration and anti-aging properties. Stable in aqueous solutions, making it suitable for supplementation in biological assays and enzyme reaction systems.
