| This product is a racemic mixture of the R- and S-enantiomers.
However, the naturally-occurring form of equol from horse urine consists of
a single stereoisomer. While the chemical properties of the single
isomer form are essentially identical to those of the racemic mixture
(except for rotation of plane polarized light, melting point, etc.), the
biological properties of the single-isomer, naturally-occurring form are
quite likely to be somewhat different from those of the racemic mixture. In
the future, LC Labs will be offering, at attractive prices, the pure
single-isomer form of equol corresponding to the naturally-occuring urinary
metabolite |
