Description

Elcatonin is a synthetic polypeptide analog of calcitonin, a key hormone involved in calcium and bone metabolism. This high-purity active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) is critical for developing effective treatments for bone-related disorders. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical manufacturers and research institutions in the development and production of therapeutic formulations.

Application

• Pharmaceutical API: Core active ingredient in injectable formulations for the treatment of osteoporosis and Paget's disease of bone.
• Metabolic Bone Disorder Research: Used in preclinical and clinical studies to investigate calcium regulation and bone resorption.
• Analgesic Formulations: Incorporated into medications for its analgesic effects in conditions like complex regional pain syndrome.
• Reference Standard: Serves as a high-purity chemical reference standard for quality control and analytical method development in laboratories.
• Biochemical Research: Employed in studies of endocrine pathways, peptide hormone action, and receptor binding assays.

Quality Control

Our Elcatonin is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for pharmaceutical applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming identity, purity, and conformance to agreed specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption.
