Description

Locustatachykinini is a synthetic peptide analog of insect neuropeptides, identified by CAS No. 126985-97-5. This compound is of significant interest in biochemical research for its role in studying insect physiology and developing novel pest control strategies. It serves as a critical research tool for neuroscientists, entomologists, and agrochemical developers investigating targeted, species-specific insect management solutions.

Application

• Neuroscience Research: Used as a reference standard and ligand in studies of insect tachykinin receptor signaling and neuropeptide function.
• Entomological Studies: Applied in physiological assays to understand the role of neuropeptides in insect behavior, feeding, and reproduction.
• Agrochemical R&D: Serves as a lead compound or molecular template for the design of next-generation, selective biopesticides and insect growth regulators.
• Pharmacological Screening: Utilized in high-throughput screening platforms to identify agonists or antagonists of insect-specific neuropeptide pathways.
• Biochemical Reagent: Employed in the development of immunoassays or as a calibrant in analytical method development for peptide detection.

Quality Control

Our Locustatachykinini is produced under stringent conditions to ensure high purity and batch-to-batch consistency, suitable for sensitive research applications. Each lot is supported by comprehensive analytical data. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to meet the documentation requirements of research and development laboratories.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below in a dry environment. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container should be allowed to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to minimize moisture uptake. For long-term storage, consider desiccant use.
