Potent, endogenous neuromedin U receptor agonist (EC50 values are 65 and 91 pM at NMU1 and NMU2 respectively). Induces phase shifts in the circadian rhythm of locomotor activity following i.c.v. administration. Potent endogenous anorexigenic peptide.

Florfenicol amine is a metabolite of Florfenicol. Florfenicol, a veterinary antibiotic, can be used in aquaculture to control susceptible bacterial diseases.

Chitinase, Serratia marcescens (EC 3.2.1.14) has partial lysozyme activity and is widely found in bacteria, fungi, animals and some plants. Chitinase belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase family. Chitinase catalyzes chito-oligosaccharide hydrolysis. Chitinases also can serve as prognostic biomarkers of disease progression. Chitinase can be used in the research of pathogenesis of various human fibrotic and inflammatory disorders, particularly those of the lung (idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, sarcoidosis, and asthma) and the gastrointestinal tract (inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) and colon cancer).
