Results from this study2

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone2

In this study, Oxytocin was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Oxytocin.

    Synthesised disulfide-bridged oxytocin and deamino-oxytocin dimers were isolated in 20% to 40% yield.

    In plain wordsIn lab synthesis, oxytocin dimers were obtained in 20% to 40% yield.

    Summary
    Final isolated yields of the desired pure dimers were in the 20% to 40% range.

    In this study, Oxytocin was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Oxytocin.

  2. 02LabNot a test of Oxytocin aloneOther designActivity measurement

    The oxytocin and deamino-oxytocin dimers had biological activities of 0.2% to 6% of oxytocin, depending on the assay, and some were protracted.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests, the oxytocin dimers were much less active than oxytocin, and some acted for longer.

    Summary
    Biological activities ranged from 0.2% to 6% that of oxytocin, depending on the assay, and were in some cases considerably protracted.

    In this study, Oxytocin was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Oxytocin.
