MedKoo Cat#: 145177 | Name: VUAA1

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

VUAA1 is a synthetic Orco agonist. VUAA1 is reported to be an odorant receptor co-receptor (Orco) agonist in insects with potential use as an insect repellent. VUAA1 presents low toxicity, similar to other insect repellents. VUAA1 is able to activate both heteromeric and homomeric Orco-containing channels.
