Description

Prosomatostatin CAS NO 74315-46-1 is a synthetic peptide analog of somatostatin, a key regulatory hormone. This compound is valued for its high purity and stability, making it a critical reagent in advanced biochemical research and pharmaceutical development. It is primarily utilized by research institutions, diagnostic manufacturers, and pharmaceutical companies engaged in endocrinology, metabolic disorder studies, and peptide-based drug discovery.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a reference standard and active agent in studies of somatostatin receptor (SSTR) function, hormone regulation, and signal transduction pathways.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Serves as a key intermediate or reference compound in the R&D of novel therapeutics targeting neuroendocrine tumors, acromegaly, and other hormone-related disorders.
• Diagnostic Assays: Employed in the development and calibration of immunoassays (ELISA, RIA) for the quantitative measurement of somatostatin and related peptides.
• Cell Culture & In Vitro Studies: Applied in cell-based assays to investigate the inhibitory effects on growth hormone, insulin, and glucagon secretion.
• Neuroscience Research: Utilized to study the role of somatostatin as a neurotransmitter/neuromodulator in the central and peripheral nervous systems.

Quality Control

Our Prosomatostatin is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, 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, ensuring compliance with research-grade standards.

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 equilibrate to room temperature in a desiccator before opening to prevent condensation and hydrolysis. For long-term storage, consider under an inert atmosphere.
