Description

Amidorphin (8-26) is a bioactive peptide fragment derived from the C-terminal region of the proenkephalin A precursor. This compound is of significant interest in biochemical and pharmacological research due to its potential opioid-like activity and role in signal transduction pathways. It serves as a critical research tool for neuroscientists and pharmaceutical developers investigating pain modulation, neuroprotection, and receptor-ligand interactions. The product is supplied as a high-purity material suitable for advanced in vitro and in vivo studies.

Application

• Neuroscience Research: Investigation of opioid receptor binding, signal transduction, and neuronal communication.
• Pharmacological Studies: Used as a reference standard or active agent in assays for screening novel analgesics or neuroprotective drugs.
• Biochemical Analysis: Substrate for studying enzyme kinetics, peptide metabolism, and degradation pathways.
• Cell Culture & In Vitro Models: Application in cell-based assays to study cellular responses and gene expression related to the opioid system.
• Academic & Institutional R&D: Fundamental research tool in university and government laboratories for exploring neuropeptide function.

Quality Control

Every batch of Amidorphin (8-26) is manufactured and tested under strict quality management systems. Our products undergo rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC and MS, to ensure high purity and batch-to-batch consistency suitable for research applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and other critical parameters is provided with each shipment to ensure full traceability and compliance with your research requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below in a dry environment. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature in a desiccator before opening to minimize moisture uptake. For long-term storage, consider under an inert atmosphere.
