General description

A certified solution standard suitable for use as starting material in calibrators and controls of nitrazepam for LC/MS or GC/MS testing methods. Nitrazepam is a benzodiazepine sold as a treatment for severe insomnia. This drug is marketed under the trade names Mogadon, Nitrados, and Somnite.

Application

  • Nitrazepam research solution in sedative pharmacological studies: Nitrazepam, a benzodiazepine, is extensively used in pharmacological research focusing on its sedative effects. Studies explore its impact on the central nervous system and its potential therapeutic applications for sleep disorders and anxiety (Bhoir et al., 1999).
  • Neuroscientific research applications of Nitrazepam: The solution is vital in neuroscientific studies, particularly those investigating the modulation of GABAergic systems by benzodiazepines. Nitrazepam is used to elucidate the mechanisms through which benzodiazepines affect neurotransmitter release and neuronal excitability (Honeychurch et al., 2006).
