Ercalcidiol (25-Hydroxyvitamin D2; 25-OH vitamin D2) is 25-hydroxylated form of vitamin D2 and a metabolite regarded as an indicator of vitamin D nutritional status.
ln Vitro |
As the primary prescription form of vitamin D, ercalciferol (25(OH)D2) must be distinguished from 25(OH)D3 in order to properly monitor vitamin D therapy. Because ercalciferol binds poorly to vitamin D-binding proteins and has a shorter half-life than 25(OH)D3, it is less effective than vitamin D3 and requires considerably higher doses. When attempting to monitor vitamin D2 therapy, certain tests now in use have a limited capacity to detect iacalcidiol, which could result in severe overdoses [2].

Additional Infomation |
25-hydroxyvitamin D2 is a hydroxycalciol that is vitamin D2 in which the hydrogen at position 25 has been replaced by a hydroxy group. It has a role as a bone density conservation agent, a nutraceutical and a human xenobiotic metabolite. It is a hydroxycalciol, a seco-ergostane and a vitamin D. It is functionally related to a vitamin D2.
9,10-Secoergosta-5,7,10(19),22-tetraene-3,25-diol. Biologically active metabolite of vitamin D2 which is more active in curing rickets than its parent. The compound is believed to attach to the same receptor as vitamin D2 and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3. |

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.06 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 (6.06 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
Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.06 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. |

*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.
Calculation results
Working concentration: mg/mL;
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution concentration mg/mL). Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
