IRL 1620 is an N-succinylated endothelin-1 analogue which acts as a highly selective ETB endothelin receptor agonist, with Ki values of 0.016 and 1900 nM at ETB and ETA receptors respectively. IRL 1620 can also discriminate between two subpopulations of ETB receptors, and in vivo IRL 1620 can significantly reduce neurological and motor deficit as well as infarct volume in a pediatric rat model of cerebral ischemia.

Normally, this peptide will be delivered in lyophilized form and should be stored in a freezer at or below -20 °C. For more details, please refer to the manual: Handling and Storage of Synthetic Peptides

Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a common counterion from the purification process using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The presence of TFA can affect the peptide's net weight, appearance, and solubility.

Impact on Net Weight: The TFA salt contributes to the total mass of the product. In most cases, the peptide content constitutes >80% of the total weight, with TFA accounting for the remainder.

Solubility: TFA salts generally enhance the solubility of peptides in aqueous solutions.

In Biological Assays: For most standard in vitro assays, the residual TFA levels do not cause interference. However, for highly sensitive cellular or biochemical studies, please be aware of its presence.
