| Additional Infomation |
Reticuline is an isoquinolinol, benzyltetrahydroisoquinoline, and benzylisoquinoline alkaloid. It is a plant metabolite and the conjugate base of reticularin (1+). Reticuline has been reported in Corydalis ternata, Neolitsea konishii, and other organisms with relevant data. Reticuline is a hard protein fiber mainly composed of type III collagen. Reticuline fibers are very fine, ranging from 0.5 to 2 micrometers in diameter. They are involved in maintaining the structural integrity of various organs. See also: Reticuline (note moved to).
(±)-Reticuline (CAS 1699-46-3) is also known as 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-[(3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)methyl]-6-methoxy-2-methyl-7-isoquinolinol and (RS)-reticuline. It is a natural product extracted from Peumus boldus Molina that serves as a precursor for the synthesis of S-reticuline. No clinical trials or therapeutic approvals exist. |

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

| 10 mM | 0.3036 mL | 1.5180 mL | 3.0359 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.
