6-Benzylaminopurine (6-BA) is a wide spectrum plant growth regulator. It works as an inhibitor of respiratory kinase in plants; inhibit the degradation of chlorophyll, nucleic acid and protein; it retards aging and increases post-harvest life of green vegetables. It can be used in agriculture, horticulture, for plants at different stages, from germination to harvest. When used with gibberellins, fruit's shape can be improved.
Kinetin (6-Furfurylaminopurine)
| CAS | 525-79-1 |
| Appearance | White crystals |
| Purity | 99% |
| Melting point | 266-269°C |
| Loss on drying | 0.5% |
Kinetin is a Cytokinin type plant growth regulator. It can promote cell division, differentiation and growth, and thus enhance germination and fruit set, induce callus initiation, reduce apical dominance, break lateral bud dormancy, retard aging. It is used in agriculture, fruit and vegetable planting, tissue culture.
α-Naphthylacetic acid (NAA)
| CAS | 86-87-3 |
| Appearance | White crystals |
| Purity | 98% |
| Melting point | 130-134°C |

| Residue on ignition | <0.1% |
α-Naphthylacetic acid (NAA) is a broad-spectrum plant growth regulator. It has the feature and function of inner auxin 3- indolebutyric acid which can accelerate the division and enlargement. It can be absorbed via root, stem or leaf. It is widely used in agriculture, forestry, vegetable, flower, fruit etc. It can induce formation of adventitious root, improve cutting culture, promote fruit set, and prevent pre-maturation of fruit.
Zeatin/Trans-Zeatin
| CAS | 1637-39-4 |
| Appearance | White or Yellow powder |
| Purity | 98% |
| Melting point | 208-210°C |
| Loss on drying | 0.3% |
| Residue on ignition | 0.1% |
Zeatin is a member of the plant hormone family known as Cytokinin, which regulates cell division, development, and nutrient processing. It is the most widely distributed natural growth regulator existing in plants.
Forchlorfenuron (KT-30) /CPPU
| CAS | 68157-60-8 |
| Appearance | White crystals |
| Content | 98% |
| Melting point | 171-173°C |
| Loss on drying | <0.5% |
| Residue on ignition | <0.1% |
Forchlorfenuron (KT-30 is phenylurea cytokinin. It is the most active Cytokinin till now. Its bioavailability is 10-100 times of that of 6-BA. It is widely used in agriculture and horticulture. It can promote cell division and organogenesis, induce fructification and enlarge fruit, increase yield, etc.
Naphthylacetamide (NAD)
