Extra Details:: Phenobarbital, is one of ~12 compounds derivatised from barbituric acid. These compounds are central nervous system depressants and are commonly used as sedatives, anaesthetics, hypnotics and anticonvulsants. They can be classified into three groups: ultra-short-acting (clinically used as anaesthetics), short/intermediate-acting and long-acting (clinically used as anticonvulsants). Barbiturates are addictive and potentially very dangerous, producing feelings of tranquillity, but overdose can lead to a dramatic fall in blood pressure and body temperature, depressed respiration and coma. The short-acting barbiturates are the most favoured by recreational drug users. Phenobarbital is the most widely used anticonvulsant, often used for long-term control of seizures, since it has a very long half-life (2-7 days). Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months after receipt.
