Methacholine Chloride
SKU | 02190231-CF |
Alternate Names | Acetyl-β-methylcholine chloride; 2-(Acetyloxy)- N,N,N- trimethyl-1- propanaminium chloride; O-Acetyl-β-methylcholine chloride; (2-Hydroxypropyl) trimethylammonium chloride acetate; (2-Acetoxypropyl) trimethylammonium chloride; Trimethyl-β-acetoxypropylammonium chloride |
Application Notes | Methacholine is primarily used to diagnose bronchial hyperreactivity,which is the hallmark of asthma and also occurs in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Acetyl-ß-methylcholine (methacholine), an analog of acetylcholine, is use as a receptor agonist to study processes such as airway hyperresponsiveness associated with asthma. |
