    Product Description

    Corydaline is an alkaloid that has been found in C. cava and has diverse biological activities.1,2,3,4 It inhibits acetylcholinesterase (AChE; IC50 = 15 μM).1 Corydaline is nematocidal against S. ratti and S. venezuelensis third instar larvae with 50% paralysis (PC50) values of 18 and 30 μM, respectively.2 It inhibits thrombin-induced platelet aggregation in vitro (IC50 = 54.16 μg/ml).3 Corydaline (1 and 3 mg/kg) increases gastric emptying in rat models of apomorphine- and laparotomy-induced delayed gastric emptying.4

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
