(−)-Scopolamine hydrobromide is utilized extensively in research focused on the nervous system, where it acts as a competitive antagonist at muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. Neuroscientists also employ it to simulate the effects of cholinergic system disruptions, which are characteristic of certain neurological conditions, to better understand their pathophysiology. In botanical studies, the compound serves to investigate the biosynthesis of tropane alkaloids in plants, as well as their ecological role in plant defense mechanisms. Additionally, (−)-Scopolamine hydrobromide is used in the field of ophthalmology research, where its application helps in evaluating the processes involved in pupil dilation and accommodation reflexes.
