Basic description
|
Dermorphin has no common structure with mammalian opioid peptides. This peptide, isolated from the skin of the South American frog Phyllomedusa sauvagei, is the more selective of all m-opioid agonists.
|
Solubility
|
The peptide is soluble in water. The contents of this vial have been accurately determined. Both the stopper and the vial have been siliconized. Do not attempt to weigh out a smaller portion of the contents.
