Podophyllotoxin is a naturally occurring lignan found in the roots and rhizomes of *Podophyllum* plants, primarily used in pharmaceuticals as a precursor for the synthesis of etoposide and teniposide, which are chemotherapy drugs. It is also studied for its potential antiviral and antiproliferative properties. Podophyllotoxin has a CAS number of 518-28-5, a molecular formula of C22H22O8, and a molecular weight of 414.41 g/mol. It must be stored between 2 to 8°C and carries a **Danger** signal word due to its high toxicity. Molekula supplies Podophyllotoxin from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
