Product Details


🧬 1. Product Description

(S)-Equol is a bioactive isoflavan compound associated with the metabolism of daidzein, a soy isoflavone. It has attracted interest in nutritional science, dietary ingredient development, and biochemical research due to its distinct chemical structure and biological activity.

Unlike racemic equol, (S)-Equol represents a specific stereoisomer. This distinction is important for manufacturers and ingredient buyers who require a defined molecular form for product development, research, or specialized formulation.

Khonor supplies specialty chemical raw materials and functional ingredients to international B2B customers. We support sourcing inquiries for (S)-Equol, including product specifications, quality documentation, packaging, and export requirements.
