Key benefits

  • Promotes cell division and differentiation Kinetin powerfully stimulates plant cell division and works synergistically with auxins to induce tissue differentiation and bud sprouting.
  • Delays tissue senescence By inhibiting the degradation of chlorophyll and proteins, it significantly extends the shelf life of leaves and fruits while maintaining their green color.
  • Enhances stress resistance It boosts crop resilience against adverse conditions such as drought and low temperatures, thereby effectively stabilizing crop growth and yield in harsh environments.

Suggested dosage & application

For formulators

TC grade; formulate into SL/SP. Kinetin 98% TC is insoluble in water but soluble in dilute acids, dilute alkalis or DMSO, and is commonly formulated into 0.01%/4% SL or SP blends. It is stable under heat, light and varying pH, but needs proper surfactant systems to prevent precipitation in liquid fertilizers. Every shipment includes a batch COA.

For direct field use

Seed/tuber soak: 5–10 mg/L for 12–24 hours to break dormancy. Fruit set: 5–10 mg/L at flowering. Extend leafy-crop shelf life: 2–5 mg/L. General foliar rate: 2–10 mg/L.

Frequently asked questions

01What is the CAS number of kinetin?

Kinetin (6-furfurylaminopurine) has CAS number 525-79-1. We supply 98% technical grade (TC) powder with a batch COA for every shipment.

02What does kinetin do, and at what rates is it used?

Kinetin is a classic cytokinin: it promotes cell division and tissue differentiation, works with auxins to overcome apical dominance, and is exceptionally effective at delaying senescence. Typical rates: 5–10 mg/L seed/tuber soak (12–24 h) to break dormancy; 5–10 mg/L at flowering for fruit set; 2–5 mg/L on leafy crops to extend shelf life; general foliar rate 2–10 mg/L.

03Is this a ready-to-use product or a technical-grade material?

It is a TC grade for formulators; formulate into SL/SP. Kinetin 98% TC is insoluble in water but soluble in dilute acids, dilute alkalis or DMSO, and is commonly formulated into 0.01%/4% SL or SP blends. It is stable under heat, light and varying pH, but needs proper surfactant systems to prevent precipitation in liquid fertilizers.

04Can kinetin be blended with other PGRs?

Yes. It is frequently combined with IAA/NAA for tissue-culture shoot differentiation, or with GA3 + IBA in premium broad-spectrum crop biostimulants.

05What is the MOQ, lead time and shelf life?

Kinetin (6-Furfurylaminopurine) 98% TC Powder MOQ is 25kg. Typical lead time is about 10 working days to Shanghai port; OEM packaging and batch COA are available. Shelf life is 24 months in the original sealed packaging.
