We are a well acknowledged firm, engaged in meeting the growing needs of the market by offering Chromium Picolinate. It is a semisynthetic derivative of podophyllotoxin, exhibits antitumor activity. This drug inhibits DNA synthesis by forming a complex with topoisomerase II and DNA. This complex induces breaks in double stranded DNA and prevents repair by topoisomerase II binding. Accumulated breaks in DNA prevent entry into the mitotic phase of cell division, and lead to cell death. Chromium Picolinate acts primarily in the G2 and S phases of the cell cycle. We offer this drug at market leading prices to clients.
