Oxytocin 10mg

Description

Oxytocin 10mg is a 10mg vial of Oxytocin, a neuropeptide hormone, supplied by Ameano Peptides as freeze-dried powder. It’s intended for lab research only.

About Oxytocin

Oxytocin is a nine-amino-acid hormone made in the hypothalamus and released by the posterior pituitary. It controls uterine contraction and milk release, and acts in the brain on social behavior.

Synthetic oxytocin is an approved obstetric drug.

How Oxytocin acts in the lab

Oxytocin acts on the oxytocin receptor, a G-protein coupled receptor found in the uterus, breast tissue and many brain regions.

In the body it triggers contractions and milk letdown. In the brain it’s involved in social recognition, bonding and stress responses, which is what most current research is about.

Oxytocin research

Intranasal oxytocin has been widely studied for social cognition, with mixed and debated results.

Kosfeld and colleagues’ 2005 Nature paper on trust is one of the best-known studies.

The primary literature is on PubMed. Here’s a search for Oxytocin studies to start from.

Oxytocin 10mg quality and batch records

Every batch of Oxytocin 10mg is made to a minimum of 99% purity by HPLC.

Look for the batch number on the label. That’s what the certificate of analysis is filed under, and we’ll send you the COA for it on request.

Keep the batch number with your records. It’s the quickest way to match a vial to its paperwork later.

How to reconstitute Oxytocin 10mg

Here’s the math for 10mg of peptide:

• 1mL of diluent gives 10mg/mL
• 2mL of diluent gives 5mg/mL
• 3mL of diluent gives 3.33mg/mL

Choose the volume that suits your measurements. Mark the vial with the concentration and date so nobody has to guess later.

Use a sterile diluent such as our research diluent solution. Warm the sealed vial to room temperature first so no condensation gets in, add the liquid slowly along the glass wall, and swirl gently until it’s clear. Never shake.

Oxytocin 10mg storage and shelf life

The dry powder keeps best cold: 2 to 8°C in the fridge, or -20°C for long-term storage. After reconstitution, store it in the fridge and finish it within roughly four weeks.

What you need with Oxytocin 10mg

You’ll need a diluent to mix Oxytocin 10mg. Our 10mL research diluent covers several vials, and the 2mL diluent kit gives you a fresh vial for each mix. Add sterile syringes and alcohol swabs, and the 10-slot vial case if you want your vials stored upright in the fridge.
