What is Wogonin?
- Wogonin is a monomeric flavonoid compound; its primary natural source is the root of the traditional Chinese medicinal herb *Scutellaria baicalensis* (Huangqin), while it is present only in trace amounts in the stems and leaves of *Scutellaria barbata* (Banzhilian).
- It can be produced vianatural extraction or chemical synthesis and exhibits anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-tumor lead activities.
- Wogonin is widely used as a raw material in scientific research, clinical screening for new drugs, and the formulation of functional cosmetics.
- This product is intended for research and development purposes and is not for use as a therapeutic drug for humans.
Wogonin is known for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. It is also being studied for its potential benefits in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmetic applications.
We can provide relevant documentation such as CAS numbers, COA, MSDS, HPLC test reports, and NMR spectra.

Wogonin is the aglycone monomer, whereas Wogonoside is its glycosylated form. Wogonoside is the primary form found in the *Scutellaria* herb and is converted into Wogonin only through metabolism within the body; the two compounds differ in their CAS numbers and physicochemical properties.
Wogonin is slightly soluble in water but readily soluble in organic solvents such as DMSO, ethanol, methanol, and acetone. For in vitro studies, it is typically dissolved in DMSO first and then diluted with aqueous buffers. Poor water solubility is a key consideration in formulation development.
Both are active flavonoid compounds derived from *Scutellaria baicalensis*; the key structural difference is that Wogonin contains a methoxy group (–OCH₃), whereas Baicalein possesses an additional hydroxyl group (–OH).
Wogonin is more stable and lipophilic, whereas Baicalein exhibits stronger antioxidant activity.
Applications of Wogonin
We offer 99% high-purity wogonin for use in scientific research, pharmaceutical R&D, and cosmetic formulation development.
- Scientific Research & Reference Standards:Our products serve as reference standards for Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) quality control and are used in pharmacological mechanism studies—currently the primary application for wogonin.
- Preclinical Drug R&D:Pharmaceutical companies and CROs utilize it as a lead compound in the development of anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective therapies.
- Cosmeceutical Development:Its exceptional anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties make it ideal for developing functional skincare formulations.
- Dietary Supplement R&D: It can be used in the development of formulations combining functional flavonoid ingredients.
Note: This product is a high-purity synthetic monomer intended solely for R&D and experimental use; it is not for direct consumption as a pharmaceutical drug for humans.
