Lumichrome(Cat No.: R041590) is a photoproduct of the vitamin B2 (riboflavin) that forms under ultraviolet (UV) light exposure. It is a type of flavin compound with antioxidant properties and is involved in various biological processes, including the regulation of plant growth and response to light. In plants, lumichrome plays a role in photomorphogenesis, influencing development and stress response. It has also shown potential in antimicrobial research due to its ability to modulate light-induced biological activity. Further studies are needed to explore its broader therapeutic applications.
