Azaperone (Standard)

Azaperone (R-1929) (Standard) is the analytical standard of Azaperone (HY-B1470). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Azaperone is an antagonist of dopamine D2 receptor (Dopamine D2 Receptor) and α-adrenergic receptor (AR). Azaperone reduces vasomotor tone, mean arterial pressure, hematocrit, hemoglobin concentration, and etorphine-induced duration; induces transient tachycardia followed by bradycardia, splenic uptake of red blood cells, and sedation; alters animal behaviors; and produces sedation with distinct onset and duration in foals. Azaperone is used for sedation and tranquilization in various animals to reduce stress and aggressive behaviors, and serves as a preanesthetic agent.
