Dipropofol (Standard)

Dipropofol (Standard) is the analytical standard of Dipropofol. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Dipropofol is a dimeric derivative of Propofol (HY-B0649) with antioxidant and antibacterial activities. Dipropofol terminates free radical chain reactions, scavenges DPPH free radicals and inhibits lipid peroxidation. Dipropofol protects cells from death induced by glutamate, Aβ(25-35) and buthionine sulfoximine, and increases the survival rate of mice exposed to oxygen. Dipropofol selectively activates tonic GABAA currents, hyperpolarizes resting membrane potential, reduces action potential firing, and alleviates the severity of seizures induced by Kainic acid. Dipropofol can be used in the research of Gram-positive bacterial infections, Alzheimer's disease, cerebral ischemia-related neuronal injury, oxygen toxicity and temporal lobe epilepsy.
