Ordering Information

Biological Activity

Amfebutamone (Bupropion) HCl is a selective norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor that targets the dopamine transporter and norepinephrine transporter, while also functioning as a noncompetitive nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist. By inhibiting monoamine reuptake, it elevates synaptic concentrations of dopamine and norepinephrine, leading to enhanced neurotransmitter signaling and downstream modulation of central nervous system pathways that regulate mood, cognition, and reward-related behaviors.

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
