Description

Seractide is a synthetic polypeptide analog of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), identified by CAS NO 12279-41-3. This compound is of significant interest in pharmaceutical research and development due to its potential as a diagnostic and therapeutic agent for adrenal function. It is primarily utilized by research institutions, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and clinical diagnostic laboratories. The material is characterized by its hygroscopic and light-sensitive nature, requiring specific handling and storage protocols to maintain stability and efficacy.

Application

• Pharmaceutical research and development for adrenal-related disorders.
• Diagnostic agent in clinical tests for assessing adrenal cortex function (ACTH stimulation tests).
• Reference standard in analytical chemistry and quality control laboratories.
• Biochemical research into the mechanisms of peptide hormones and receptor interactions.
• Potential therapeutic applications in endocrinology.
• Manufacturing of specialized diagnostic kits and reagents.

Quality Control

Our Seractide is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure high purity and consistency, meeting the standards required for research and diagnostic applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing parameters such as purity, peptide content, and impurity profiles are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption. For long-term stability, consider storage at 2-8°C.
