Perhexiline Maleate, 1 mg

Supplied by STEMCELL Technologies, perhexiline maleate is a small-molecule inhibitor of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT-1) delivered as 1 mg of powder in a single-use vial. In laboratory research, the compound is used to modulate cardiac fatty acid oxidation, study metabolic switching between lipid and glucose utilization, and probe mitochondrial bioenergetics in cardiomyocytes and other cell models. It has also been applied in studies of neutrophil chemotaxis, monocyte differentiation, and tumor cell metabolism where lipid oxidation is implicated in proliferation or survival. Researchers commonly reconstitute the contents in DMSO or ethanol for stock solutions, with working concentrations typically in the nanomolar to low micromolar range depending on the assay system and cell type. The material is intended for research use only and is not approved for human or veterinary diagnostic or therapeutic applications. Storage recommendations call for the vial to be kept tightly sealed, protected from light, and stored at -20 °C to maintain chemical stability across extended experiments. Each unit ships as a single 1 mg vial, allowing reproducible preparation of fresh working stocks for cell culture, biochemistry, and flow cytometry workflows.
