norepinephrine-bitartrate-hydrate

Description: Norepinephrine bitartrate monohydrate (Levarterenol; L-Noradrenaline) is a potent and beta1-selective adrenergic receptor agonist with EC50 of 5.37 uM. Norepinephrine is an organic chemical in the catecholamine family that functions in the brain and body as a hormone and neurotransmitter. It is a naturally occurring chemical in the body that acts as both a stress hormone and neurotransmitter (a substance that sends signals between nerve cells). It's released into the blood as a stress hormone when the brain perceives that a stressful event has occurred.
