Hemin Supplier – Finetech Industry Limited | CAS 16009-13-5, ≥95% Purity for Biomedical Research

1. Product Overview

Hemin (CAS 16009-13-5) is an iron-containing porphyrin compound, also known as Hemin Chloride, Ferriprotoporphyrin IX Chloride, or Chlorohemin. It consists of a protoporphyrin IX structure coordinated with ferric iron and a chloride ligand, making it an important compound for studying heme-related biochemical and biological processes.

As a biologically relevant iron porphyrin, Hemin is widely used in biomedical research, particularly in investigations involving heme metabolism, oxidative stress responses, enzyme regulation, and cellular signaling.

Finetech Industry Limited supplies Hemin (Catalog No. FT-0626882) with a purity of ≥95%, suitable for research and laboratory applications.

3. Chemical Characteristics and Biological Significance

Hemin is characterized by its conjugated porphyrin ring system and centrally coordinated ferric iron. This molecular structure allows it to participate in a range of heme-associated biochemical interactions.

In biological systems, heme-containing molecules are involved in oxygen transport, electron transfer, enzymatic reactions, and cellular redox regulation. Hemin therefore provides a useful research compound for investigating the biological functions and metabolic pathways associated with heme.

Its interactions with heme-regulatory enzymes and cellular signaling pathways also make it relevant to studies of oxidative stress, inflammation-related responses, and cellular adaptation.

4. Research Applications of Hemin

4.1 Heme Oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and Heme Metabolism Research

One of the important research applications of Hemin is the investigation of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), an enzyme involved in heme degradation.

Hemin is commonly used as an HO-1 inducer in experimental models. Researchers use it to investigate HO-1 expression, enzyme activity, and the downstream biological effects associated with heme metabolism.

These studies help improve understanding of cellular responses to heme exposure, oxidative stress, and related regulatory mechanisms.

4.2 Oxidative Stress and Cellular Signaling Studies

Hemin is also used in research examining oxidative stress and cellular signaling. As an iron-containing porphyrin, it can influence cellular redox processes and the expression of stress-responsive proteins.

In controlled experimental systems, Hemin can serve as a research tool for studying cellular antioxidant responses, redox balance, and interactions between heme metabolism and signaling pathways.

Its effects may vary depending on concentration, exposure time, cell type, and experimental conditions.

4.3 Microbiology and Bacterial Growth Research

Hemin is relevant to microbiological studies involving organisms that require or utilize heme-related compounds for growth and metabolism.

It may be incorporated into specialized culture media and experimental systems to investigate bacterial growth requirements, microbial physiology, and the role of iron-containing porphyrins in microbial processes.

This application makes Hemin useful in selected microbiology and host–microbe interaction research models.

4.4 β-Hematin Formation and Antimalarial Compound Screening

Hemin is also used in experimental studies of β-hematin formation. β-Hematin is a crystalline material associated with the detoxification of heme by malaria parasites.

In vitro β-hematin formation assays use Hemin as a starting material to investigate the inhibition of heme crystallization and to evaluate compounds with potential antimalarial research relevance.

These assays provide a useful experimental approach for studying heme-related mechanisms and screening research compounds.
