Ractopamine-13C2

Ractopamine-13C2 is the 13C-labeled Ractopamine (HY-113781) . Ractopamine (LY031537) hydrochloride is a potent β-adrenergic receptor (βAR) agonist with Kd values of ~25 nM for pig β1AR and β2AR. Ractopamine hydrochloride is linked to protein metabolism. Ractopamine hydrochloride can be used for researching to increase lean tissue growth and improve production efficiency in pigs[1][2][3].
