Description
Clenbuterol, often referred to as “clen”, is a potent beta-2 agonist that can stimulate beta-2 receptors in mammals, which in turn leads to fat loss by allowing the body to release and burn more stored fat. It has been used as a performance-enhancing drug by athletes and bodybuilders (now banned by IOC) and has been illegally used for decades in the veterinary world to increase the lean yield of livestock. Clenbuterol can cause a multitude of adverse effects upon entering the human body, such as dizziness, nausea, diarrhea, agitation, muscle cramps, hypertension, and even acute myocardial infarction (heart attack). Therefore, it has been banned in many countries to be used on food-producing animals. The TriboTM Clenbuterol ELISA Kit can quickly, sensitively, and accurately determine the presence of clenbuterol in animal feed, and urine and tissue samples of animals, providing a vital tool to prevent the consumption of food tainted with this toxic chemical.
