(S)-Nornicotine (Cat.No:R0492169) is an alkaloid naturally occurring in tobacco plants. It is a metabolite of nicotine and possesses lower toxicity. Research suggests potential therapeutic applications, including in smoking cessation aids and as a cognitive enhancer. However, its use requires careful consideration due to its association with nicotine addiction.
