β-Endorphin, rat

SKU: orb1944070

Description

This research-grade peptide, β-Endorphin (rat, β-Lipotropin 61-91), is involved in cardiovascular control. It induces a pronounced and sustained catatonia-like state of muscular rigidity and immobility in rat models, making it a valuable tool for neuropharmacological and behavioral studies in vivo.
