| Additional Infomation |
Phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) is an isothiocyanate with a Phenethyl atom attached to its nitrogen atom. It is a natural compound found in certain cruciferous vegetables (such as watercress) and is known to possess anticancer properties. It can be used as an antitumor agent, a metabolite, and an EC 1.2.1.3 [aldehyde dehydrogenase (NAD(+))] inhibitor. Phenethyl isothiocyanate has been used in clinical trials investigating its use in the prevention and treatment of leukemia, lung cancer, tobacco use disorder, and lymphoproliferative disorders. Phenethyl isothiocyanate has been reported to be present in mustard greens, kale, and other organisms with relevant data. Phenethyl isothiocyanate is an isothiocyanate found in cruciferous vegetables with chemopreventive and potential antitumor activities. Although its mechanism of action is not fully understood, Phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) has been shown to induce tumor cell apoptosis, possibly mediated by its metabolic intermediate, reactive oxygen species (ROS). PEITC can also activate the ERK and JNK signaling pathways, thereby inducing the expression of stress-response genes. Specifically, the drug has been shown to reactivate the gene expression of glutathione S-transferase, a detoxification enzyme that is silenced in prostate cancer.

| Solubility (In Vitro) |

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (15.31 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 (15.31 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.) |

| 5 mM | 1.2253 mL | 6.1263 mL | 12.2526 mL | |
| 10 mM | 0.6126 mL | 3.0632 mL | 6.1263 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.
