Product Description: Bupivacaine (hydrochloride monohydrate) (Standard) is the analytical standard of Bupivacaine (hydrochloride monohydrate). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Bupivacaine hydrochloride monohydrate is a NMDA receptor inhibitor. Bupivacaine hydrochloride monohydrate can block sodium, L-calcium, and potassium channels. Bupivacaine hydrochloride monohydrate potently blocks SCN5A channels with the IC50 of 69.5 μM. Bupivacaine hydrochloride monohydrate can be used for the research of chronic pain[1][2][3].
Formula: C18H31ClN2O2
