| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Intravenous injection of 50-100 μmol of neothecobalaine into rats with ligated renal pedicles resulted in a significant peak in bile excretion, which could be inhibited by phenolphthalein glucuronide or probenecid (both 50 μmol). Bile excretion may involve active transport processes. As a synthetic dye used in food and industrial applications, there are limited pharmacokinetic data for C.I. Acid Red 18. The compound has a molecular weight of 604.46 and is soluble in water, slightly soluble in ethanol, and insoluble in oils. It has a lambda max of 506.0 to 510.0 nm. The compound is stable to citric acid and tartaric acid. |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Interactions
Adding 5% of Red 102 (New Red Scale, NC) to a basic purified low-fiber diet (25% casein-sucrose) resulted in severe growth retardation. Conversely, the addition of dietary fiber (GDF) from burdock (the root of edible burdock, scientifically known as Arctium Lappa L.) completely prevented the toxicity of the New Red Scale. C.I. Acid Red 18 is a long-term toxicant and can induce allergic symptoms at high concentrations. The compound has poor heat stability and reducing stability. In alkaline solutions, it turns brown. The compound should be handled with appropriate safety precautions. Toxicological studies would be needed to fully characterize its safety profile for any therapeutic applications. |

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 1 mg/mL (1.65 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 10.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL of Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL of 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: ≥ 1 mg/mL (1.65 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 10.0 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.
