Description:
DPO-1 is a potent inhibitor of the voltage-gated potassium channel subtype Kv1.5 and a blocker of ultrarapid delayed rectifier potassium current. DPO-1 prevents atrial arrhythmia.
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,

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.
