Biological Activity
Bornesitol (1-100 μM; 24 h) shows no cytotoxicity against B16F10 melanoma cells at concentrations of 1 μM or 10 μM after 24 h of incubation, but induces cytotoxicity at a concentration of 100 μM[1].
Bornesitol (5 μM; 48 h) weakly inhibits tyrosinase activity in B16F10 melanoma cells after incubation at 5 μM for 48 h, with an inhibition rate of 3.06%[1].
Bornesitol (5 μM; 48 h) exerts only an extremely weak inhibitory effect on melanin content in B16F10 melanoma cells, with an inhibition rate of 0.89% after 48 h of incubation[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
