General description
Application
- Role of odorant binding protein C12 in the response of Tribolium castaneum to chemical agents.: This article explores the impact of BHT on insect biochemistry, specifically how it affects the binding affinity of odorant-binding proteins in pests, providing insights into developing more effective pest control strategies (Wang et al., 2024).
- A novel arylpiperazine derivative (LQFM181) protects against neurotoxicity induced by 3-nitropropionic acid in in vitro and in vivo models.: Research includes BHT as a comparative standard in studying neuroprotective agents, underscoring its role in biochemical pathways related to oxidative stress and neuroprotection (Campos et al., 2024).
- Simultaneous Determination of Fipronil, Permethrin and their Key Related Substances in a Topical Drug Product by a Single Stability Indicating High Performance Liquid Chromatography Method.: BHT is used as an internal standard to assess the stability and integrity of pharmaceutical products, demonstrating its utility in pharmaceutical analysis (Rathnasekara et al., 2024).
- Pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole fused spirooxindole-linked 1,2,3-triazoles as antioxidant agents: Exploring their utility in the development of antidiabetic drugs via inhibition of a-amylase and DPP4 activity.: This study utilizes BHT as a reference antioxidant to compare the efficacy of newly synthesized compounds, providing a benchmark in antioxidant research for diabetes treatment (Chahal et al., 2024).
