Lucidadiol is a triterpenoid compound used as a starting material in the synthesis of biologically active steroid compounds, particularly in pharmaceutical research for developing hormone-related drugs. It has been investigated for its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties in laboratory settings, with potential applications in new drug development. Additionally, lucidadiol serves as a reference standard or marker in the analysis of natural substances from plants, especially those used in traditional herbal medicine. Emerging studies also explore its soothing and antioxidant effects for potential use in skincare and hair care formulations.
