Product Description
Blumeatin B is a flavonoid and an antioxidant.
Blumeatin B (3,3',5-Trihydroxy-4',7-dimethoxyflavanone, Taxifolin 7,4′-dimethyl ether) is a flavonoid and an antioxidant. It has a molecular formula of C₁₇H₁₆O₇ and a molecular weight of 332.30 g/mol. This compound shows xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitory activity. It delivers 27.7% higher DPPH radical scavenging than quercetin (IC₅₀ 6.27 vs. 8.67 µg/mL) and has potent anticancer effects.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
The primary molecular target of Blumeatin B is xanthine oxidase (XO), a key enzyme involved in the production of uric acid. By inhibiting XO, Blumeatin B may help reduce uric acid levels, making it a potential tool for hyperuricemia research. It also exhibits antioxidant activity through DPPH radical scavenging and has potent anticancer effects.
ln Vitro
In vitro, Blumeatin B shows xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitory activity. It delivers 27.7% higher DPPH radical scavenging than quercetin (IC₅₀ 6.27 vs. 8.67 µg/mL). It has potent anticancer effects and exhibits hepatoprotective effects by inhibiting the increase of serum alanine aminotransferase and liver triglycerides while increasing serum triglycerides, beta-lipoprotein, and liver glycogen content.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Blumeatin B exhibits hepatoprotective effects by inhibiting the increase of serum alanine aminotransferase and liver triglycerides while increasing serum triglycerides, beta-lipoprotein, and liver glycogen content in carbon tetrachloride-intoxicated rats. Its xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity suggests potential for treating hyperuricemia and gout. Its anticancer effects suggest potential for cancer research.
Enzyme Assay
Typical in vitro assays for Blumeatin B include xanthine oxidase inhibition assays, where the enzyme is incubated with xanthine substrate and various concentrations of the compound, and uric acid production is measured at 290 nm. DPPH radical scavenging assays are performed by incubating the compound with DPPH radical solution and measuring absorbance at 517 nm. Cytotoxicity assays are performed using cancer cell lines treated with the compound for 48-72 hours, and cell viability is assessed by MTT assay.
Cell Assay
Cellular assays for Blumeatin B typically involve treating cancer cell lines or hepatocytes with the compound at concentrations ranging from 1-100 µM for 24-72 hours. Cell viability is assessed by MTT assay. Xanthine oxidase activity can be measured in cell lysates. Antioxidant activity is assessed by measuring ROS levels using fluorescent probes. Hepatoprotective effects are assessed by measuring liver enzyme levels in hepatocyte cultures.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments for Blumeatin B typically involve carbon tetrachloride-intoxicated rats to assess hepatoprotective effects. Rats are administered the compound orally or intraperitoneally at doses ranging from 10-50 mg/kg. Serum alanine aminotransferase, liver triglycerides, serum triglycerides, beta-lipoprotein, and liver glycogen content are measured. For xanthine oxidase studies, hyperuricemic animal models are used, and serum uric acid levels are measured.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic data for Blumeatin B are limited. As a flavonoid with a molecular weight of 332.30 g/mol, it would be expected to have moderate oral bioavailability. Flavonoids are typically absorbed and metabolized by conjugation reactions. However, detailed ADME parameters are not available in the consulted sources.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for Blumeatin B are limited. As a natural flavonoid, it is generally considered to have low toxicity. The compound's antioxidant properties suggest it may have protective effects. However, comprehensive toxicological studies have not been reported. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling the compound.

  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
