Product Description

Calcium D-Panthotenate (also known as vitamin B5 Calcium or D-Pantothenic Acid Calcium; D-Pantothenic acid hemicalcium salt) is a water-soluble vitamin and an essential nutrient for many animals and is a precursor for coenzyme A biosynthesis. Pantothenic acid participates in a number of intermediary metabolic reactions as a component of coenzyme A (CoA). It has been reported that pantothenic acid exhibits radioprotective and antioxidative effects and pantothenic acid has the potential to protect against cell damage produced by reactive oxygen species.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro

In vitro activity: Pantothenic acid increases mainly the content of free glutathione, with little effect on protein-boundglutathione in human lymphoblastoic (Jurkat) cells. Pantothenic acid also increases cell respiration with pyruvate as the exogenous substrate. Pantothenic acid belongs to vitamin B group and is the building stone of coenzyme A. Pantothenic acid can be therefore infer that its beneficial effect in various kinds of cell damage by ROS is related to the increased content or stimulated biosynthesis of this coenzyme. Pantothenic acid increases the glutathione content by more than 50% and increases the GSH/GSSG ratio by approximately the same factor. Pantothenic acid and N-acetylcysteine alleviates the ultraviolet-induced decrease of glutathione content, diminished lipid peroxidation, and partly protects the cells against apoptosisproduced by ultraviolet irradiation.


Cell Assay: Pantothenic acid (1 mM) increased biosynthesis of glutathione by boosting cell energetic in Jurkat cells. In addition, pantothenic acid (1 mM) protected against oxidative damage and apoptosis in Ehrlich ascites tumour cells.

ln Vivo
Pantothenic acid-treated rats exhibited higher basal levels of corticosterone and progesterone than control rats in Adrenal cells. The response of ACTH and/or PRL on corticosterone and progesterone release is higher in the pantothenic acid-treated rats than in the control rats. Pantothenic acid supplementation stimulates the ability of adrenal cells in male rats to secrete corticosterone and progesterone. Pantothenic acid supplementation induces adrenalhyperresponsiveness to ACTH stimulation, and PRL further stimulated adrenal sensitivity to ACTH. Pantothenic acid prior to valproic acid (VPA) significantly protects against VPA-induced neural tube defects (NTDs) in CD-1mice. Pantothenic acid prevents VPA-induced alterations in NF-kappaB, Pim-1, and c-Myb in CD-1 mice.
Animal Protocol
3.39-10.54 mg/kg, diets
Pantothenic acid (200 mg/kg, intraperitoneal injections) completely blocked valproic acid-induced neural tube defects and the decreases in c-Myb and Pim-1 protein expression in CD-1 mice. Moreover, Calcium D-pantothenate (3.39-10.54 mg/kg, diets) increased the intestinal enzymes activities and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) levels.

*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

Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
  • Molecular mass (or molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
  • Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
