Tropodithietic Acid (TDA) is a marine-derived antibiotic with antimicrobial and cytotoxic properties. Although not widely studied in neurodegeneration, TDA has potential applications in neuroscience due to its ability to modulate microbial communities and biofilm formation. Emerging research suggests that gut-brain axis interactions and microbiome composition influence neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative disease progression. TDA may serve as a tool for exploring microbiota-related mechanisms in brain health and disease.

Need this compound in a format that drops straight into your assay? We can tailor formulation, chemistry, and documentation so your results stay consistent across runs and re-orders.
- Format options: solid or pre-dissolved solution (choose solvent), target concentration, aliquots, light/moisture-protected packaging
- Chemistry options: free base/acid vs salt forms, hydrate/solvate preference, stereoisomer control (single enantiomer or racemate), close analogs
- Add-on labels & handles: D/¹³C/¹⁵N isotopes (LC-MS/internal standards), azide/alkyne or other functional handles for conjugation
- QC & documentation: standard COA or enhanced analytical pack (HPLC/LC-MS/NMR), chiral purity, residual solvents, water content (KF), method-specific specs
- Scale & continuity: mg to gram scale, bulk pricing, lot reservation, repeat-order continuity
To quote quickly, tell us: compound name + CAS/structure (SMILES or mol file), intended assay context, solvent preference, salt/stereochemistry requirements, purity/QC level, and the amount (mg–g).
