Catestatin TFA is a 21-amino acid residue, cationic and hydrophobic peptide. Catestatin TFA is an endogenous peptide that regulates cardiac function and blood pressure[1]. Catestatin TFA is a non-competitive nicotinic antagonist acting through nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) to inhibit catecholamine release[2].

Details
Negative (lt;0)
1.;;Try to dissolve the peptide in water first. 2.;;If water fails, add NH4OH (lt;50 μL). 3.;;If the peptide still does not dissolve, add DMSO (50-100 μL) to solubilize the peptide.
Positive (gt;0)
1.;;Try to dissolve the peptide in water first. 2.;;If water fails, try dissolving the peptide in a 10%-30% acetic acid solution. 3.;;If the peptide still does not dissolve, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO.
Zero (=0)
1.;;Try to dissolve the peptide in organic solvent (acetonitrile, methanol, etc.) first. 2.;;For very hydrophobic peptides, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO, and then dilute the solution with water to the desired concentration.
