Product Information

• Name: 3-Ketodigoxigenin
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3-Ketodigoxigenin is a steroidal compound, which is a derivative of digoxigenin, originating from the cardiac glycoside digoxin. This compound acts by inhibiting the sodium-potassium ATPase enzyme, leading to an increase in intracellular calcium concentration. The elevated calcium levels enhance cardiomyocyte contraction, playing a crucial role in the study of cardiac physiology and pharmacodynamics.
