Description

Deltorphin I CAS NO 122752-15-2 is a synthetic, highly selective opioid peptide analog known for its potent and specific binding to delta opioid receptors. This compound is of significant value in advanced pharmacological research and drug discovery programs focused on pain management and neurological disorders. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical R&D laboratories, academic research institutions, and biotechnology companies developing novel therapeutic agents.

Application

• Pharmacological Research: A critical reference standard and tool compound for studying delta opioid receptor (DOR) signaling pathways, function, and distribution.
• Drug Discovery: Used in high-throughput screening (HTS) assays and as a lead compound for developing new analgesics with potentially fewer side effects than mu-opioid receptor agonists.
• Neuroscience Studies: Employed in vitro and in vivo to investigate the role of the delta opioid system in pain modulation, mood, and neuropsychiatric conditions.
• Biochemical Assay Development: Serves as a key ligand in receptor binding assays, competitive inhibition studies, and functional cellular assays to characterize new chemical entities.
• Analytical Method Development: Used as a certified reference material (CRM) for calibrating analytical instruments like HPLC and LC-MS in bioanalytical laboratories.

Quality Control

Our Deltorphin I is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity verification, mass spectrometry (MS) for identity confirmation, and amino acid analysis (AAA). We provide full traceability and Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available for all shipments, detailing purity, content, and solvent residues to support your research and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term stability, store desiccated at -20°C or below. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and easily oxidized; it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere such as argon or nitrogen after opening. Allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature in a desiccator before opening to minimize moisture uptake.
