$30 – $50
Products Details
Product Description
– Mimosine, a tyrosine analog , can act as an antioxidant by its potent iron-binding activity[1]. Mimosine is a known chelator of Fe(III)[2]. Mimosine induces apoptosis through metal ion chelation, mitochondrial activation and ROS production in human leukemic cells[3]. Anti-cancer, antiinflammation.
