SCR005 is a synthetic carbohydrate receptor (SCR) with broad-spectrum antiviral activity. SCR005 inhibits the entry of enveloped viruses across multiple families (Coronaviridae: SARS-CoV-1, SARS-CoV-2, MERS-CoV; Filoviridae: EBOV, MARV; Paramyxoviridae: NiV, HeV) and the glycosylated nonenveloped rotavirus. SCR005 binds viral envelope N-glycans, blocking viral binding to host cells or both binding and membrane fusion. SCR005 exerts prophylactic effects in hACE2 mice infected with SARS-CoV-2. SCR005 can be used for the study and prevention of enveloped virus pandemics.

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.
