| Properties |
| Biological Activity: | Caged glutamate that rapidly and efficiently releases glutamate when photolysed (300-380 nm excitation). Water-soluble, highly resistant to hydrolysis, stable at neutral pH, and pharmacologically inactive at neuronal glutamate receptors (up to mM concentrations). 2.5-fold more efficient at releasing L-glutamate than NI-caged L-glutamate. |
