Lumiflavin (CAS 80-54-2) is a photo-oxidized derivative of riboflavin, widely utilized in industrial photoredox catalysis and fluorescence studies. Its core synthesis involves the controlled oxidative degradation of vitamin B2 under UV irradiation.
Strictly avoid direct skin contact; wear appropriate PPE including gloves and goggles. Store in a cool, dry place away from strong light sources to prevent premature photodegradation. Not approved for direct human therapeutic use without further formulation.
