Ordering Information

Biological Activity

Enalapril maleate is an orally active angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. It competitively blocks the enzymatic conversion of angiotensin I to the active vasoconstrictor angiotensin II, thereby reducing systemic vasopressor activity and aldosterone secretion. Additionally, inhibition of ACE—also known as kininase II—prevents the degradation of the vasodilator bradykinin, promoting downstream vascular relaxation and hemodynamic modulation. [1]

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).
