Product Details

Formula:	C₁₀H₁₅NO . C₄H₄O₄

MW:	281.3

CAS:	1219922-30-1

Purity:	≥96% (HPLC)

Appearance:	Light brown solid.

Solubility:	Soluble in water (14mg/ml).

Application Notes:	(±)-Anatoxin is a potent agonist at neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. At low concentrations (20-200nM) it acts as an agonist. At higher concentrations (>800nM), it blocks the AChR ion channel, desensitizes the receptor and blocks neuromuscular transmission.

Shipping:	Ambient

Long Term Storage:	-20°C

Use/Stability:	Store, as supplied, at -20°C for up to 1 year. Store solutions at -20°C for up to 1 month

Regulatory Status:	RUO - Research Use Only
