Description

Deltorphin, Leu(2)- CAS NO 154722-68-6 is a synthetic opioid peptide analog, specifically a potent and selective agonist for the delta opioid receptor (DOR). This compound is of significant value in advanced pharmacological research and drug discovery due to its high receptor specificity and biological activity. It is primarily utilized by research institutions, pharmaceutical R&D departments, and biotechnology companies investigating pain management, neurological pathways, and novel therapeutic agents.

Application

• Neuroscience Research: Used as a selective tool compound to study the function and signaling of delta opioid receptors in the central nervous system.
• Analgesic Drug Discovery: Serves as a reference standard and lead compound in the development of new, non-addictive pain relief medications.
• Biochemical Assays: Employed in receptor binding studies, functional cell-based assays (e.g., cAMP inhibition), and signal transduction research.
• Academic & Pharmaceutical R&D: Critical for basic research on opioid receptor biology, ligand-receptor interactions, and the physiological effects of DOR activation.
• Reference Standard: Used for analytical method development, validation, and quality control in peptide synthesis and characterization.

Quality Control

Our Deltorphin, Leu(2)- is produced under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity for research applications. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing including HPLC for purity determination, mass spectrometry (MS) for identity confirmation, and amino acid analysis (AAA). A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, identity, and other critical parameters is provided with every shipment.

Storage

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