Properties and stability

Use and store according to specifications, no decomposition will occur, and avoid contact with oxides

Storage method

Stored in a cool, dry and well-ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. Protect from direct sunlight. The packaging is sealed. They should be stored separately from acids and food chemicals, and avoid mixed storage. Suitable materials should be available in the storage area to contain spills.

Synthesis method

Exists in the roots of the Boraginaceae plant Lithospermum spp., Xinjiang Lithospermum and other plants. Lithospermum cell culture can also be used to produce shikonin.
