Human Oxytocin stimulates uterine smooth muscle contractions indirectly and stimulates the mammary glands to increase lactation without increasing the production of milk.
Lyophilized Oxytocin although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18℃. Upon reconstitution Neurophysin 1 should be stored at 4℃ between 2-7 days and for future use below -18℃.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
