MedKoo Cat#: 585374 | Name: Vicine

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Vicine is an alkaloid glycoside found mainly in fava beans (Vicia faba). Vicine is toxic in individuals who have a hereditary loss of the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. It causes hemolytic anemia, called favism.
