Description
Levetiracetam-d
6 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of levetiracetam by GC- or LC-MS. Levetiracetam is an antiepileptic agent that binds to the synaptic vesicle protein SV2A (IC
50 = 1.99 μM).
In vivo, levetiracetam suppresses seizures in fully kindled rats.
Uses
LevetiracetaM-d6 is the labelled (S)-enantiomer of the ethyl analog of Piracetam,it is uUsed as an anticonvulsant.
Uses
