Orexin-B 10 mg

Product Overview

Orexin-B 10 mg is a high-purity synthetic peptide produced for laboratory research involving orexin signalling, neurobiology, and receptor pharmacology. Also known as Hypocretin-2, Orexin-B is an endogenous neuropeptide derived from the precursor protein prepro-orexin. It interacts primarily with the orexin receptor family, including OX1R and OX2R, allowing researchers to investigate signalling pathways involved in energy homeostasis, neuronal communication, and physiological regulation.

Manufacturers produce Orexin-B as a lyophilised powder with a purity of 97% or greater, verified by HPLC analysis. In addition, each production lot includes a Certificate of Analysis (COA) to provide complete batch traceability and quality assurance. Consequently, researchers can rely on consistent product quality across multiple experimental workflows.

Peptide Information

Orexin-B contains an amidated C-terminal sequence and shares approximately 46% sequence identity with Orexin-A, particularly within its C-terminal region. Furthermore, proteolytic processing of prepro-orexin produces this peptide naturally. Researchers frequently use Orexin-B to investigate orexin receptor signalling, food intake regulation, energy balance, obesity research, cellular differentiation, and broader neuroscience applications.

Storage & Stability

Store Orexin-B at -20 °C in a dry, desiccated environment for long-term stability. However, short-term storage at 2-8 °C is acceptable when necessary. Additionally, avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles because they may reduce peptide stability and experimental consistency.

Why Choose Orexin-B 10 mg?

• High-purity peptide for sensitive research
• HPLC-verified quality
• Low endotoxin specification
• COA included with every batch
• Lyophilised for extended storage stability
• Reliable batch-to-batch consistency
