Putrescine hydrochloride（Cat No.:H000074）is the hydrochloride salt of putrescine, a naturally occurring aliphatic diamine with the molecular formula C4H14Cl2N2. It appears as a white crystalline powder and is highly soluble in water. Putrescine is involved in cellular growth and proliferation, serving as a precursor in polyamine biosynthesis alongside spermidine and spermine. In its hydrochloride form, it is commonly used in biochemical and microbiological research, particularly in cell culture and metabolic studies. It also plays roles in tissue regeneration and stabilization of nucleic acids. Due to its odor and biological activity, careful handling is required.
