| Targets |
2-Pentylfuran does not have a specific biological target but functions as a volatile flavor compound and potential biomarker. As a furan derivative, it may interact with biological membranes and olfactory receptors. Its role as a biomarker for fungal infection suggests that it may be produced by fungal metabolism and detected in breath or other biological samples.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, 2-Pentylfuran is used as a reference standard and in studies of food flavor and volatile organic compounds. Its activity is related to its role as a flavoring ingredient rather than a pharmacologically active compound. It is a valuable tool for studying the chemistry of food flavors and for developing analytical methods for volatile organic compounds.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, 2-Pentylfuran is not used as a therapeutic agent but may be a biomarker for fungal lung infections. Its detection in breath samples may indicate the presence of fungal pathogens.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro assays for 2-Pentylfuran typically involve analytical chemistry methods such as GC-MS or GC-FID for quantification in food and biological samples. The compound is extracted from samples using headspace or solid-phase microextraction and analyzed by GC-MS.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cellular assays, 2-Pentylfuran is not typically used as a pharmacologically active compound. It may be used in studies of fungal metabolism, where fungal cultures are analyzed for 2-pentylfuran production.
|

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (18.09 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (18.09 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C，1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
