Acetylcholine

A key neurotransmitter of the nervous system: it carries signals from nerves to muscles and regulates the heart and glands. Its role as a chemical messenger emerged from Otto Loewi's 1921 experiments, rewarded in 1936 with the Nobel Prize shared with Henry Dale. This family brings together the active ingredient and pharmacopoeial impurities.

Did you know?It was first extracted from a natural source in 1914 by Arthur Ewins, as a mysterious blood pressure-lowering 'contaminant' in some extracts of ergot, the fungus Claviceps purpurea.
