Product Description
Buprofezin is a broad-spectrum insecticide and chitin synthesis inhibitor that targets homopteran pests in their developmental stages. Buprofezin promotes the conversion of energy metabolism from the aerobic TCA cycle and oxidative phosphorylation to anaerobic glycolysis. Buprofezin can also promote the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by inhibiting cytochrome c oxidase.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
HepG2 cell viability is strongly inhibited by methazine at concentrations of 100, 300, and 1000 µM [1]. HepG2 cells' energy metabolism is promoted to switch from aerobic tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) and oxidative phosphorylation to anaerobic glycolysis by methazine (3, 10, 30 µM; 24 h) [1]. In HepG2 cells, promethazine (3, 10, 30 µM; 24 h) suppresses Complex IV activity [1].
ln Vivo
There is an accumulation of triclofenac (46.3, 139, 417 mg/kg; po; single) in the kidney (18.64%), brain (23.58%), stomach (21.94%), and liver (35.84%)[1]. Promethazine (46.3, 139, 417 mg/kg; po; single) elevates MDA levels in mice's liver and brain more than in any other organ[1].
Cell Assay
RT-PCR[1]
Cell Types: HepG2 cells
Tested Concentrations: 3, 10, 30 µM
Incubation Duration: 24 h
Experimental Results: Dramatically increased lactate dehydrogenase B (LDHB) levels when at 30 µM, and slightly increased 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase /fructose-2,6-biphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3). diminished ATP levels in a concentration-dependent manner to 91.3, 87.9 and 67.2% of the levels in the vehicle control under treatment with 3, 10 and 30 µM buprofezin, respectively. Dramatically increased the lactate levels.

Immunofluorescence[1]
Cell Types: HepG2 cells
Tested Concentrations: 3, 10, 30 µM
Incubation Duration: 24 h
Experimental Results: Dramatically inhibited the activity of Complex IV to 82.2, 69.2 and 63.4% of the vehicle control levels following buprofezin treatment at 3, 10 and 30 µM, respectively.

Cell Viability Assay[1]
Cell Types: HepG2 cells
Tested Concentrations: 3, 10, 30 µM
Incubation Duration: 24 h
Experimental Results: Dramatically increased the intracellular ROS levels in a concentrate-independent manner, and diminished mtDNA contents.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Male C57BL/6 mice (6 to 8weeks old)[1].
Doses: 46.3, 139, 417 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Oral administration; single
Experimental Results: Tended to elevate the MDA level in all organs, and the most significant concentration-dependent increases were observed in the liver and brain. demonstrated the highest concentrations in the liver (35.84%) followed by the brain (23.58%), stomach (21.94%) and kidney (18.64%), while the levels in the mouse spleen and heart were below the limit of detection.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: 100 mg/mL (327.40 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.18 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), 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 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.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.18 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), 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.

*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
