Pyridine-like alkaloid. Nicotine agonist. Potent agonist at alpha3beta4 and alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and partial agonist at alpha4beta2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. Shows analgesic, antihypertensive and inotropic activities. Used for smoking cessation. Might be used for binge-like ethanol drinking cessation. Iron-chelator and hydroxyl radical scavanger. Has antidepressant properties. Used in forensics in novel surface molecular imprinting techniques. Storage and Stability: Short-term Storage: +4 degrees C Long-term Storage: -20 degrees C Stable for at least 2 years after receipt when stored at -20 degrees C.
