Application

(±)-Muscarine chloride hydrate may be used:
  • as an acetylcholine receptor agonist in neuronal precursor cell lines PC 12 cells
  • as toxin test compound for paper spray mass spectrometry (PSMS) optimization experiments
  • as a component of quality control(QC) in hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography-high resolution tandem mass spectrometry (HILIC-HRMS/MS) analysis of human urine samples

Biochem/physiol Actions

Muscarine is a potent agonist than acetylcholine and is not susceptible to degradation by cholinesterases. Muscarine administration results in muscle spasm especially in gut, bronchus and uterus.
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor agonist; originally isolated from Amanita muscaria.
