[Nphe1]Nociceptin(1-13)NH2, a novel nociceptin/orphanin FQ (NC) endogenous ligand, is a selective and competitive ociceptin receptor antagonist without any residual agonist activity. [Nphe1]nociceptin(1-13)NH2?binds selectively to recombinant nociceptin receptors (pKi=8.4) and antagonizes the inhibitory effects of nociceptin on cyclic AMP accumulation in CHO cells (pA2=6.0). [Nphe1]Nociceptin(1-13)NH2 has the potential to act as an analgesic agent.

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.
