Product Description
Beta-Cortol is an androgen metabolite present in adults.
Beta-Cortol (CAS#: 667-65-2) is a metabolite of cortisol, the primary glucocorticoid hormone produced by the adrenal cortex. The compound has a molecular formula of C21H32O5 and a molecular weight of approximately 364.48. Beta-Cortol is formed by the reduction of cortisol and is one of several cortisol metabolites excreted in urine. The compound is used as a reference standard and research tool for studying cortisol metabolism, adrenal function, and glucocorticoid-related disorders. It is also used in clinical diagnostics as a biomarker for cortisol production and metabolism.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Beta-Cortol does not have a specific pharmacological target, as it is a metabolite of cortisol rather than a therapeutic agent. However, as a cortisol metabolite, it is involved in the metabolism and clearance of cortisol from the body. The compound is used as a biomarker for studying cortisol metabolism and adrenal function. Its levels in urine can provide information about cortisol production and metabolism.
ln Vitro
In vitro studies on Beta-Cortol are not typically performed, as the compound is a metabolite used primarily as a reference standard and biomarker. The compound's role in cortisol metabolism has been characterized using analytical methods such as HPLC, GC-MS, and LC-MS/MS. These methods are used to quantify Beta-Cortol levels in biological samples for diagnostic and research purposes.
ln Vivo
In vivo studies on Beta-Cortol are focused on its role as a biomarker for cortisol metabolism. The compound is measured in urine and other biological samples to assess cortisol production and metabolism in various clinical conditions, including adrenal insufficiency, Cushing's syndrome, and other glucocorticoid-related disorders. Elevated or reduced levels of Beta-Cortol can indicate alterations in cortisol metabolism and adrenal function.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro assays for Beta-Cortol are analytical rather than biological. The compound is used as a reference standard in HPLC, GC-MS, or LC-MS/MS methods for the quantification of cortisol metabolites in biological samples. In these assays, Beta-Cortol is analyzed alongside other cortisol metabolites to assess cortisol metabolism and adrenal function.
Cell Assay
Cellular assays for Beta-Cortol are not performed, as the compound is a metabolite used for analytical and diagnostic purposes. The compound is not used in cell-based assays and is not studied for its effects on cells.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for Beta-Cortol are not applicable. The compound is a metabolite used as a biomarker for studying cortisol metabolism and adrenal function in humans and animals. It is measured in biological samples but is not administered to animals for research purposes.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Beta-Cortol has a molecular weight of approximately 364.48 and a molecular formula of C21H32O5. The compound is a solid at room temperature and is typically stored under appropriate conditions to maintain its stability. For research use, the compound is stored as powder at -20degC for up to 3 years or at 4degC for up to 2 years. The compound is soluble in organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, and DMSO for analytical applications. Detailed pharmacokinetic parameters are not applicable.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for Beta-Cortol are not available, as the compound is a naturally occurring metabolite and is not a therapeutic agent. The compound is not intended for human or animal use. Standard safety precautions should be followed when handling the compound for research purposes.

*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.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
