Totarol (CAS 511-15-9) is a naturally occurring diterpene phenol isolated from the heartwood of Podocarpus totara and other Podocarpus species. It has long been recognized for its potent antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, particularly against Gram-positive bacteria. We supply it as a white to off-white crystalline powder with ≥98% HPLC purity, suitable for use in personal care, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical research applications.
As a lipophilic compound, totarol integrates well into oil-based formulations and emulsions. Its stability and bioactivity make it a valuable ingredient in anti-aging skincare, preservative systems, and topical antimicrobial products. Each batch is accompanied by a certificate of analysis (COA), MSDS, and TDS, ensuring full traceability and quality assurance.
