Dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine are essential for neurotransmission in the mammalian system. These three neurotransmitters have been the focus of considerable research because the modulation of their production and their interaction at monoamine receptors has profound effects upon a multitude

We have studied the ability of various uptake blockers to protect the dopamine neuronal carrier labeled with [3H]GBR 12783 (1-[2-(diphenylmethoxy)ethyl]-4-(3-phenyl-2-(propenyl)-piperazine) against N-ethylmaleimide-induced alkylation, using membrane preparations obtained from rat striatum. Pure uptake inhibitors such as mazindol, pyrovalerone, nomifensine and methylphenidate

Since the classification of miaow miaow (mephedrone) as a class B drug in April this year, a new drug is emerging as a so-called 'legal high'. Deaths have already been attributed to ivory wave in different parts of the country.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
