Description

Application

(-)-Epinephrine (+)-bitartrate salt has been used for studying the active calcium uptake by rainbow trout skin. It has also been used in oxygen-derived oxidant assays for assessing the susceptibility of C. neoformans biofilms to antimicrobial molecules.

Biochem/physiol Actions

(-)-Epinephrine (+)-bitartrate salt is an α,β-adrenergic receptor agonist. It inhibits the lipolysis completely and can overcome the antilipolytic impact of insulin in perifused isolated fat cell.

Adrenergic receptor agonist.
