(ARG)9 Inhibitor – (Arg)9 TFA

(Arg)9 TFA (Nona-L-arginine TFA), a cell-penetrating peptide, exhibits neuroprotective activity with an IC50 of 0.78 uM in the glutamic acid model.

Small volumes of (Arg)9, inhibitor vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

MBS5763392 is an inhibitor targeting (Arg)9. Also known as (Arg)9 TFA.
