Description:
NS5806 is a potent potassium current activator, increases KV4.3/KChIP2 peak current amplitudes with an EC50 of 5.3 μM. NS5806 slows KV4.3 and KV4.2 current dacay in channel complexes containing KChIP2[1].
Handling:
Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance,
we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one
month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at
least 1 hour.
