Product Information
| Description: | 3-Nitro-L-tyrosine (3-NT, N-Tyr, MNT), synthesized from L-tyrosine by peroxynitrite, is a product of nitric oxide and superoxide. 3-Nitro-L-tyrosine inhibits the hemodynamic responses to angiotensin II, possibly through the inhibition of alpha 1-adrenoceptor-mediated events. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
