Desmopressin acetate (DDAVP, Stimate) is a synthetic 1-desamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin analogue. This research-grade peptide is provided as a white lyophilized powder with minimum 99% purity, suitable for laboratory studies.
The modified structure of desmopressin, featuring 1-deamino and D-Arg8 substitutions, provides enhanced stability and duration of action compared to natural vasopressin. These structural modifications make it particularly valuable for research into water balance disorders and coagulation studies.
In research settings, desmopressin acetate has demonstrated potential applications in studies related to: central diabetes insipidus mechanisms, nocturnal enuresis (bed-wetting) research, and coagulation factor VIII studies. The peptide may also be relevant for investigations into Von Willebrand's disease and hemophilia A models.
This product is provided strictly for laboratory research purposes. All potential applications mentioned are derived from published literature and have not been evaluated by regulatory agencies for clinical use.
