    Product Description

    (±)-Epinephrine-d3 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of (±)-epinephrine (Item No. 21245) by GC- or LC-MS. (±)-Epinephrine is a natural neurotransmitter that is released from the adrenal medulla and activates adrenoceptors (Kis = 15, 735, and 3,970 nM for α1A-, β2-, and β1-adrenergic receptors, respectively).1,2,3 Through these receptors, (±)-epinephrine may induce either contraction or relaxation of vascular smooth muscle, depending on adrenoceptor subtype expression.3 Formulations containing (±)-epinephrine have been used in the emergency treatment of severe allergic reactions and the induction and maintenance of mydriasis during intraocular surgery.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
