Product Description



Epirubicin is a high-purity antineoplastic agent designed for use in chemotherapy treatments, particularly for cancers such as breast and gastric cancer. Categorized as pharmaceutical-grade, this red crystalline powder has a molecular formula of C27H29NO11 and is structurally defined as an epimer of doxorubicin with altered stereochemistry at the 4 hydroxyl group. It is odorless and possesses a distinct bitter taste. The product is slightly soluble in water and readily dissolves in methanol and ethanol, with a pH range of 5.0-7.0 when in solution. With a particle size precision ranging between 80-200 mesh, it ensures optimized chemical performance and usability. Toxic if mishandled, Epirubicin requires careful storage below 25C in a tightly closed container, away from light and moisture. It features exceptional purity, 99%, and minimal heavy metal content (0.001%). The solid compound has a melting point of 210-220C but decomposes before boiling, guaranteeing stability under standard pharmaceutical handling. Designed for a shelf life of up to 2 years, Epirubicin is a critical asset in cancer treatment protocols.
