| Targets |
Ethopabate's primary target is folate metabolism. As a PABA antagonist, it inhibits the synthesis of folic acid, which is essential for the growth and development of protozoan parasites of the genus Eimeria. By disrupting the parasite's ability to synthesize this vital nutrient, Ethopabate prevents the establishment and progression of the infection.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Ethopabate's activity is measured by its ability to inhibit the growth of Eimeria species in cell culture. It has intrinsic coccidiostatic potency, though it is often used in combination with other drugs like amprolium and nicarbazin to enhance its efficacy.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Ethopabate is effective in preventing and controlling coccidiosis in poultry when administered as a feed additive. Its efficacy is often improved when used in combination with other coccidiostats.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The mode of action of Ethopabate is studied in cell-free assays that measure folate synthesis. In this system, the enzyme dihydropteroate synthase, which is involved in folate biosynthesis, is incubated with its substrates (e.g., PABA and pteridine) in the presence of Ethopabate. The inhibition of the enzyme's activity is measured.
|
| Cell Assay |
For cellular assays, the antiprotozoal activity of Ethopabate is assessed in cultures of Eimeria parasites. The parasites are grown in host cells, and the compound's ability to inhibit their replication is determined.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo, Ethopabate is administered to poultry through their feed or drinking water. Its efficacy is evaluated in controlled trials by measuring the reduction in oocyst shedding, the severity of intestinal lesions, and the overall health and weight gain of the birds.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Ethopabate has a molecular weight of 237.25 g/mol. As a feed additive, it is incorporated into poultry diets at specific concentrations to achieve therapeutic efficacy.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
As a coccidiostat, Ethopabate has a low toxicity profile for the host (poultry) due to the selective toxicity of the folate biosynthesis pathway in the parasite.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (10.54 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 (10.54 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.
