Product Description: Sunifiram (Standard) is the analytical standard of Sunifiram. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Sunifiram (DM-235) is an ampakine-like compound and an agonist of AMPA receptor with oral activity. Sunifiram can increase the release of acetylcholine in the rat cerebral cortex and exhibits potent cognitive enhancement effects with better nootropic activity compared to piracetam (HY-B0585). Sunifiram is promising for research in neurodegenerative diseases such as mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD)[1][2][3][4].
