Description

Epinephrine is a catecholamine that is used as a drug to treat cardiac arrest. It functions by binding to beta-adrenergic receptors in the heart and blood vessels, which leads to increased heart rate, increased contractility of the heart muscle, and increased blood flow to the brain. Epinephrine also has been shown to decrease renal transplant rejection, promote wound healing, and protect against bacterial infection. The thermodynamic data for epinephrine was determined using multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with fatty acids at acidic pH values. This prodrug prevents oxidation of tyrosinase and diphenolase activity in vitro. Epinephrine nebulized with hydrochloric acid can be used for corneal epithelium preservation before surgery.
