Description

Neurotensin Acetate Salt is a high-purity, biologically active peptide derivative of the endogenous tridecapeptide neurotensin. This compound is critical for advanced research into neuropeptide signaling pathways and receptor interactions. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical R&D teams, academic research institutions, and biotechnology companies focused on neuroscience, metabolic disorders, and oncology.

Application

• Neuroscience Research: Used as a potent neuromodulator and neurotransmitter analog to study its effects on dopamine pathways, pain perception, and thermoregulation.
• Pharmacological Studies: Serves as a reference standard and active agent in assays for characterizing neurotensin receptor subtypes (NTS1 and NTS2).
• Drug Discovery & Development: A key intermediate and tool compound in the development of novel therapeutics targeting neurological and psychiatric conditions.
• Biochemical Analysis: Employed in cell-based assays, receptor binding studies, and signal transduction research to elucidate mechanism of action.
• Academic & Clinical Research: Facilitates fundamental research into the role of neurotensin in appetite regulation, cancer cell proliferation, and inflammatory responses.

Quality Control

Our Neurotensin Acetate Salt is manufactured under strict quality systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, mass spectrometry for identity confirmation, and amino acid analysis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, acetate content, and residual solvents are provided to ensure compliance with research and development standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Allow the vial to reach room temperature in a desiccator before opening to minimize moisture uptake. For long-term storage, keep desiccated at -20°C.
