Used in research related to ginsenoside metabolism, this compound serves as a key intermediate in studying the biological activity and transformation pathways of dammarane-type triterpenoids. It has been investigated for its potential role in enhancing cellular antioxidant effects and modulating metabolic enzymes. Its structure supports studies on steroid-like compounds with possible applications in anti-aging and neuroprotective research. Due to its similarity to active components in Panax species, it is also explored for use in developing standardized herbal formulations and quality control in phytochemical analysis.
