Shipping Temperature
The product is shipped as a lyophilized powder at room temperature. Upon receipt, store the product at -20°C. Protect from moisture.
Storage Conditions
Storage as Solution: The reconstituted solution can be stored at 4°C for up to 1 week. For longer periods (up to 6 months), small aliquots should be stored at -20°C. We do not recommend storing the product in working solutions for longer than a few days. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. - Storage before Reconstitution: The product is shipped as a lyophilized powder at room temperature. Upon receipt, store the product at -20°C. Protect from moisture. - Storage after Reconstitution: The reconstituted solution can be stored at 4°C for up to 1 week. For longer periods (up to 6 months), small aliquots should be stored at -20°C. We do not recommend storing the product in working solutions for longer than a few days. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.

Reconstitution
Centrifuge the vial (10, 000 × g for 5 minutes) before adding solvent to spin down all the powder to the bottom of the vial. The lyophilized product may be difficult to visualize. Add solvent directly to the centrifuged vial. Gently tap, tilt, and roll the vial to aid dissolution. Avoid vigorous vortexing; light vortexing for up to 3 seconds is acceptable if needed. The product is soluble in pure water at high micromolar concentrations (100 µM - 1 mM). For long-term storage in solution, we recommend preparing a stock solution by dissolving the product in double-distilled water (ddH2O) at a concentration between 100-1000x of the final working concentration. Divide the stock solution into small aliquots and store at -20°C. Before use, thaw the relevant vial(s) and dilute to the desired working concentration in your working buffer. Centrifuge all product preparations before use. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions in working buffers just before use. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles to maintain biological activity.

Scientific Background
Calcicludine is a natural peptide isolated from the Dendroaspis angusticeps green mamba venom by a modification to the procedure of Schweitz et al.1 and purified to homogenity.Calcicludine was shown to be a specific neuronal L-type CaV channel blocker and was shown to inhibit other neuronal HVA CaV channels (N- and P-type) as well.1 1 µM Calcicludine had no effect on skeletal muscle CaV channels (CaV1.1) as well as on T-type (CaV3) channels in heart and neurons.1 Calcicludine was tested to confirm its ability to block spontaneous or K+-induced contraction of cardiac cells.1 It blocked CaV1.2 cloned channels with an IC50 of 88 nM and had very little effect on CaV2 family channels.2 In addition, the block was irreversible upon wash and never complete but reached a maximum of 58%.
