Product Description
Isonicotinamide is a biochemical compound that may be utilized as a biomaterial or organic/chemical reagent for biomedical research.
Isonicotinamide (CAS 1453-82-3) is a biochemical reagent and organic compound used in life science research. It is an isomeric analogue of nicotinamide and a metabolite of isonicotinic thioamide. The compound strongly induces apoptosis in human acute myelomonocytic leukemia cells, HL-60. It serves as a critical intermediate in the single-step synthesis of isonicotinic acid hydrazide (isoniazid), a first-line anti-tuberculosis drug. The compound is used as a pharmaceutical intermediate to synthesize cefalonium. It has been shown to be active against multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Isonicotinamide strongly induces apoptosis in human acute myelomonocytic leukemia cells, HL-60. It has been shown to be active against resistant microorganisms, including multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis and MRSA. The compound serves as a critical intermediate in the synthesis of isoniazid, a first-line anti-tuberculosis drug. As a pharmaceutical intermediate, it is used to synthesize cefalonium. The compound's mechanism of action involves apoptosis induction in cancer cells and antimicrobial activity.
ln Vitro
In vitro, isonicotinamide strongly induces apoptosis in HL-60 human leukemia cells. It has been shown to be active against multidrug-resistant M. tuberculosis and MRSA. The compound is used as a pharmaceutical intermediate. Pd(II)-isonicotinamide complexes exhibit enhanced in vitro anti-M. tuberculosis activity. Cellular assays typically evaluate its anticancer or antimicrobial activity. The compound's ability to induce apoptosis makes it valuable for cancer research.
ln Vivo
In vivo data for isonicotinamide is limited. As a metabolite of isonicotinic thioamide and an intermediate in isoniazid synthesis, it may have relevance to tuberculosis treatment. The compound is classified for research use only and is not intended for human or veterinary therapeutic applications. It has antimicrobial activity against drug-resistant strains. Specific in vivo data for the parent compound is not available in the public literature. The compound's role as an isoniazid intermediate is its primary therapeutic relevance.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro anticancer assays for isonicotinamide typically evaluate its apoptosis-inducing activity in leukemia cells. A standard protocol involves culturing HL-60 or other leukemia cell lines in growth medium at 37°C with 5% CO₂. Cells are treated with varying concentrations of the compound (typically 0.1-1000 μM). Apoptosis is assessed using flow cytometry with Annexin V/PI staining, caspase activity assays, or DNA fragmentation analysis. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or similar assays. IC₅₀ values are calculated from dose-response curves.
Cell Assay
Antimicrobial assays for isonicotinamide typically evaluate its activity against M. tuberculosis and other bacteria. A standard protocol involves culturing bacterial strains in appropriate growth medium. The compound is dissolved in an appropriate solvent and diluted to working concentrations. Antimicrobial activity is assessed by measuring minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) using broth microdilution or agar diffusion methods. For M. tuberculosis, specialized media and extended incubation times are used. MIC values are recorded. Pd(II)-isonicotinamide complexes can also be evaluated.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for isonicotinamide are not standard, as it is primarily a research reagent and synthetic intermediate. The compound is classified for research use only and is not intended for human or veterinary therapeutic applications. Any animal studies would typically be conducted on isoniazid or other drugs synthesized using this intermediate. The compound's primary value lies in its use as a pharmaceutical intermediate.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic data for isonicotinamide is limited. The compound has a molecular weight of 122.12 g/mol. It is stored as a solid at room temperature. As a nicotinamide analogue, it may be metabolized similarly to nicotinamide. The compound's role as an isoniazid intermediate is relevant for understanding isoniazid metabolism. Specific ADME data is not available in the public literature.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for isonicotinamide is limited. The compound is classified for research use only and is not intended for human or veterinary therapeutic applications. Standard safety precautions include handling with appropriate personal protective equipment (gloves, lab coat, safety goggles) in a well-ventilated area. The compound should be stored in a dry, cool place away from incompatible materials. Acute toxicity data is not readily available in the public literature. As with all research chemicals, appropriate laboratory safety practices should be followed. No specific LD₅₀ values or detailed toxicological profiles are available in the public domain.
Additional Infomation
Isonicotinamide is a pyridinecarboxamide, a monocarboxylic acid amide derivative of isonicotinic acid. It is functionally related to isonicotinic acid. Isonicotinamide has been reported to have been found in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), and relevant data are available for reference.
Isonicotinamide (CAS 1453-82-3) is a biochemical reagent and pharmaceutical intermediate with a molecular weight of 122.12 g/mol. It induces apoptosis in HL-60 leukemia cells and is active against drug-resistant M. tuberculosis and MRSA. The compound is classified as a research-use-only compound not intended for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. It is available from multiple commercial suppliers in various pack sizes. No clinical trials or approved drug status exist for this compound as it is not a therapeutic agent. Its applications are limited to research and as a pharmaceutical intermediate.

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • 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)
