l-liothyronine

Liothyronine is a T3 thyroid hormone normally synthesized and secreted by the thyroid gland in much smaller quantities than thyroxine.

Liothyronine Sodium is the sodium salt form of liothyronine, a synthetic form of the levorotatory isomer of the naturally occurring thyroid hormone triiodothyronine (T3). Liothyronine sodium (3,3',5-Triiodo-L-thyronine sodium) binds to nuclear thyroid receptors which then bind to thyroid hormone response elements of target genes. As a result, liothyronine sodium induces gene expression that is required for normal growth and development. Liothyronine sodium is more potent and has a more rapid action than thyroxine (T4).

T3-KLH is a hapten-carrier protein conjugate formed by coupling T3 (thyroxine) to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH). As a hapten, T3 alone cannot induce an immune response and must be conjugated to a large molecular protein to become a complete antigen with immunogenicity. T3-KLH may be supplied as a lyophilized powder or as a solution. The solution is prepared in 0.01 M PBS (pH 7.4) buffer at a typical concentration of 1 mg/mL.

T3-OVA is a hapten-carrier protein conjugate formed by coupling T3 (thyroxine) to chicken ovalbumin (OVA). As a hapten, T3 alone cannot induce an immune response and must be conjugated to a large molecular protein to become a complete antigen with immunogenicity.

T3-BSA is a hapten-carrier protein conjugate formed by coupling T3 (thyroxine) to bovine serum albumin (BSA). As a hapten, T3 alone cannot induce an immune response and must be conjugated to a large molecular protein to become a complete antigen with immunogenicity.
