Product Description
Poriol is a flavonoid isolated from Pseudotsuga sinensis.
Poriol (CAS# 14348-16-4) is a flavonoid compound belonging to the flavanone subclass, with the molecular formula C16H14O5 and a molecular weight of 286.28. It is a natural flavonoid isolated from various plant species including Pseudotsuga sinensis, Cephalotaxus sinensis, and Populus species. Poriol is a C-methylated flavanone and is found in Pinus morrisonicola. It is produced in reaction to infection by Poria weirii in Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii). The compound is used as an anti-infection agent in research applications. It has a purity of ≥98% and is soluble in chloroform, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, DMSO, and acetone.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Poriol targets pathways involved in plant defense responses, as it is produced in reaction to infection by Poria weirii in Douglas fir. As a flavonoid, it may interact with various biological targets including enzymes, receptors, and signaling pathways involved in inflammation and infection. The compound's C-methylated flavanone structure provides specific structural features for biological interactions. Its use as an anti-infection agent suggests it may have antimicrobial or antifungal properties. Further research is needed to identify its specific molecular targets and mechanisms of action.
ln Vitro
In vitro studies of Poriol have focused on its isolation and characterization from various plant species. The compound has been isolated from Pseudotsuga sinensis, Cephalotaxus sinensis, and Pinus morrisonicola. Its chemical structure has been confirmed as a C-methylated flavanone. The compound is used as an anti-infection agent in research applications. Its purity of ≥98% supports its use in research applications. These in vitro studies provide foundational data for understanding the compound's properties and its potential applications in anti-infection research.
ln Vivo
In vivo studies of Poriol are limited as the compound is primarily used as a research chemical. Its production in Douglas fir in response to Poria weirii infection suggests it plays a role in plant defense mechanisms in vivo. As a flavonoid, it may have biological activities including anti-infection properties. However, comprehensive in vivo pharmacological studies specifically targeting Poriol are not well documented in the available literature. The compound is intended for research use only and is not for human therapeutic use.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme assays for Poriol typically involve testing its anti-infection activity. Antimicrobial activity is assessed using standard disc diffusion or broth microdilution methods to determine minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) against various bacterial and fungal strains. The compound's purity and identity are assessed using analytical chemistry methods such as high-performance liquid chromatography, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry. Antioxidant activity may be assessed using cell-free systems such as DPPH radical scavenging assays. All assays are performed with appropriate controls and standardized protocols.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for Poriol involve culturing cells to evaluate its anti-infection and potential other biological activities. Cells are treated with varying concentrations of the compound and cell viability is assessed using MTT or similar colorimetric assays. For antimicrobial studies, bacterial or fungal cultures are treated with the compound and cell viability is monitored. For anti-inflammatory studies, immune cells are treated with the compound and stimulated with inflammatory stimuli; cytokine production is measured by ELISA. All experiments are performed in triplicate with appropriate controls to ensure statistical reliability.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments for Poriol would be conducted to evaluate its anti-infection activities. For antimicrobial studies, infected animals would be treated with the compound and pathogen load assessed. For anti-inflammatory studies, animals with induced inflammation would be treated and inflammatory markers measured. Parameters assessed would include body weight, organ weights, and histopathology. Control groups receiving vehicle alone would be included for comparison. All procedures would comply with institutional animal care and use committee guidelines. Comprehensive in vivo studies are not well documented in the available literature.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
The pharmacokinetic properties of Poriol reflect its nature as a flavonoid compound. It has a molecular weight of 286.28 and the molecular formula C16H14O5. The compound is soluble in chloroform, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, DMSO, and acetone, indicating moderate lipophilicity. It is stored desiccated at -20°C. As a flavonoid, it would be absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract and metabolized through standard xenobiotic pathways in the liver. Complete pharmacokinetic profiling including half-life, clearance, volume of distribution, and bioavailability would require further systematic studies.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity profile of Poriol has been evaluated in the context of its use as a research chemical. As a natural flavonoid found in various plant species, it is expected to have a favorable safety profile at research concentrations. Proper handling procedures including use of personal protective equipment are recommended when working with pure compound. The compound is not approved for human therapeutic use and is intended for research purposes only. Long-term toxicity studies would be needed to fully establish its safety profile for pharmaceutical applications.

  • 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)
