Paclitaxel Uses

  Paclitaxel (CAS NO.33069-62-4) can be used to treat patients with breast cancer,lung, ovarian,  head and neck cancer, and advanced forms of Kaposi's sarcoma. Besides, it is also can be used for the prevention of restenosis. And Paclitaxel also can be used in the study of structure and function of microtubles into tubulin.

Paclitaxel Production

From 1967 to 1993,  Paclitaxel (CAS NO.33069-62-4) was derived from bark from the Pacific yew, the harvesting of which kills the tree in the process. From the late 1970s, chemists attempted a total synthesis of the molecule, starting from petrochemical-derived starting materials.
