PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
1,3,7,9-tetramethyluric acid is an oxopurine that is uric acid in which the hydrogens at positions 1,3,7 and 9 are replaced by methyl groups. It is a purine alkaloid that is found in Chinese tea known as kucha (Camellia assamica var. kucha) and exhibits anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. It has a role as a plant metabolite, an anti-inflammatory agent, an analgesic and a human xenobiotic metabolite. It is an oxopurine and a purine alkaloid. It is functionally related to a 7,9-dihydro-1H-purine-2,6,8(3H)-trione.
