| Specification: |
11-Deoxycorticosterone (64-85-7) is a steroid hormone produced by the adrenal gland that possess mineralocorticoid activity and acts as a precursor to aldosterone. As its names indicate, it can be understood as 21-hydroxy- variant of progesterone or a 11-deoxy- variant of corticosterone. It has no significant glucocorticoid activity. |
| Storage Temperature: | Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Hormones and antibiotics room. |
| Usage: | A steroid hormone produced by the adrenal gland that possess mineralocorticoid activity. |
