Product Description
Zinc Gluconate may be used to be studied as a food additive for the common cold, cancer and nutritional supplements.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Please refer to the DrugBank entry [DB01593]. Feces and urine are primarily stored in skeletal muscle and bones. Please refer to the DrugBank entry [DB01593].
Metabolism / Metabolites
Please refer to the DrugBank entry [DB01593]. Zinc can enter the body through the lungs, skin, and gastrointestinal tract. Intestinal zinc absorption is regulated by the zinc carrier protein CRIP. Zinc can also bind to metallothionein, thus preventing excessive absorption. Zinc is widely distributed in all tissues and tissue fluids, with higher concentrations in the liver, gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, skin, lungs, brain, heart, and pancreas. In the blood, zinc binds to carbonic anhydrase in red blood cells, as well as to albumin, β2-macroglobulin, and amino acids in plasma. Zinc bound to albumin and amino acids can diffuse across tissue membranes. Zinc is ultimately excreted in urine and feces. (L49)
Biological Half-Life
280 days
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Interactions
High doses of zinc may inhibit intestinal absorption of copper; zinc supplements should be taken at least 2 hours after copper supplements. /Zinc Supplements/
Thiazide diuretics have been found to increase urinary zinc excretion. /Zinc Supplements/
Concurrent consumption of large amounts of fiber, phosphorus, or phytates may reduce zinc absorption by forming non-absorbable complexes; foods containing fiber, phosphorus, or phytates should be consumed at least 2 hours after zinc supplements. /Zinc Supplements/
Some studies have found that folic acid reduces zinc absorption, but not in cases of zinc overdose; other studies have not found an inhibitory effect. /Zinc Supplements/

Additional Infomation
Therapeutic Uses
Veterinary Use: Treatment of bovine dermatophyte infection (caused by Trichophyton verruciformis) with oral formulations containing 20-70% zinc gluconate, 2-10% sulfur, 0.2-1% vitamin A (10⁶ IU), 2-6% methionine, and an inert carrier such as calcium carbonate or flour. Dietary Supplements and Food Additives; Vitamin Tablets Experimental Uses: Adding zinc gluconate to suboptimal doses of Ortho-Gynol gel or Delfen cream improves the vaginal contraceptive efficacy of these products. Experimental Uses: After 24 weeks of administration of vitamin C and zinc (2 g and 60 mg daily), blood lead poisoning levels decreased from 61.6 μg/100 ml to 46.0 μg/100 ml. Post-treatment, hemoglobin levels significantly increased, and serum and whole blood copper levels decreased. For more complete data on the therapeutic uses of zinc gluconate (8 types), please visit the HSDB record page.
Drug Warning
The potential role of zinc in delaying the progression of age-related macular degeneration has not been established. Zinc salts have no benefit in treating acute intermittent porphyria. /Zinc Supplements/
Zinc injections containing benzyl alcohol as a preservative should not be used on newborns and premature infants. Use of benzyl alcohol in newborns has been associated with fatal toxic syndromes, including metabolic acidosis and damage to the central nervous system, respiratory system, circulatory system, and kidneys. /Zinc Supplements/
Pharmacodynamics
Zinc is an essential mineral present in almost all cells of the human body. It promotes the activity of approximately 100 enzymes. Zinc deficiency is often associated with an increased risk of infection. When used to treat the common cold, zinc supplements may interfere with the lysis or adhesion of rhinoviruses and may play a role in protecting cell membranes from microbial toxins and complement damage.

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.

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 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 2.1946 mL 10.9729 mL 21.9457 mL
5 mM 0.4389 mL 2.1946 mL 4.3891 mL
10 mM 0.2195 mL 1.0973 mL 2.1946 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.

Calculator

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)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
g/mol

Molecular Weight Calculator allows you to calculate the molar mass and elemental composition of a compound, as detailed below:

Note: Chemical formula is case sensitive: C12H18N3O4  c12h18n3o4
Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
  • Molecular mass (or molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
  • Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.

Reconstitution Calculator allows you to calculate the volume of solvent required to reconstitute your vial.

  • Enter the mass of the reagent and the desired reconstitution concentration as well as the correct units
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer appears in the Volume (to add to vial) box
In vivo Formulation Calculator (Clear solution)
Step 1: Enter information below (Recommended: An additional animal to make allowance for loss during the experiment)
Step 2: Enter in vivo formulation (This is only a calculator, not the exact formulation for a specific product. Please contact us first if there is no in vivo formulation in the solubility section.)
