| Targets |
Hydroquinone diacetate does not have a well-defined pharmacological target. As a hydroquinone derivative, it may exhibit antioxidant properties by scavenging free radicals. It may also be hydrolyzed to release hydroquinone, which has melanin synthesis inhibitory activity. Its primary mechanism of action is related to its chemical reactivity as an organic intermediate rather than a specific biological target.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Hydroquinone diacetate is an OH• inhibitor and an antioxidant. Its activity as a chemical intermediate has been confirmed in various synthetic applications. As a hydroquinone derivative, it may share some of the antioxidant properties of hydroquinone. However, its biological activity is not extensively characterized.
|
| ln Vivo |

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (12.87 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (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 corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
| Preparing Stock Solutions | 1 mg | 5 mg | 10 mg | |
| 1 mM | 5.1496 mL | 25.7480 mL | 51.4960 mL | |
| 5 mM | 1.0299 mL | 5.1496 mL | 10.2992 mL | |
| 10 mM | 0.5150 mL | 2.5748 mL | 5.1496 mL |
*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.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation::Take μL DMSO stock solution, next add μL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
(1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
(2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
