| Targets |
Sperm acrosin, trypsin (substrate for trypsin activity assays). 4-Nitrophenyl 4-guanidinobenzoate hydrochloride is a substrate for trypsin and related serine proteases, and a potent inhibitor of sperm acrosin. The guanidinobenzoate moiety is recognized by the active site of serine proteases, and the ester bond is cleaved by the enzyme. The compound also inhibits phenoloxidase enzyme and delays embryo chorionic membrane hardening.

| ln Vitro |
4-Nitrophenyl 4-guanidinobenzoate hydrochloride is a trypsin substrate and a potent inhibitor of sperm acrosin. It inhibits phenoloxidase enzyme and delays embryo chorionic membrane hardening. The compound is used as a biochemical tool for enzyme assays. It is more water-soluble than 4-methylumbelliferyl 4-guanidinobenzoate and is preferred in spectrophotometric assays for trypsin and related serine proteases.
|
| ln Vivo |
4-Nitrophenyl 4-guanidinobenzoate hydrochloride is used as a biochemical tool for enzyme assays, not for in vivo pharmacological studies. It is not intended for therapeutic use. The compound's activity is limited to in vitro enzyme assays and sperm function studies.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Spectrophotometric enzyme assays are performed by incubating 4-nitrophenyl 4-guanidinobenzoate hydrochloride with the target enzyme (e.g., trypsin, acrosin) in appropriate buffer conditions (e.g., Tris-HCl pH 8.0, with or without calcium). Enzymatic hydrolysis releases 4-nitrophenol, which is measured at 405 nm. The increase in absorbance over time is monitored, and enzyme activity is calculated from the rate of absorbance increase using the molar extinction coefficient of 4-nitrophenol.
|
| Cell Assay |
4-Nitrophenyl 4-guanidinobenzoate hydrochloride is not typically used in cell-based assays; it is a biochemical reagent for enzyme activity measurement. It may be used in sperm function assays to assess acrosin activity. In these assays, spermatozoa are incubated with the substrate, and the release of 4-nitrophenol is measured to assess acrosin activity and acrosome reaction.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Not applicable (biochemical reagent; not used in animal experiments). 4-Nitrophenyl 4-guanidinobenzoate hydrochloride is used in in vitro enzyme assays and sperm function studies. It is not administered to animals for pharmacological studies.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
4-Nitrophenyl 4-guanidinobenzoate hydrochloride is a biochemical reagent with no pharmacological pharmacokinetic properties. It is soluble in aqueous buffers and DMSO. Stored at appropriate conditions (e.g., -20°C, protected from light and moisture) to prevent hydrolysis. The compound should be prepared fresh for assays to ensure accurate results.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
4-Nitrophenyl 4-guanidinobenzoate hydrochloride is a biochemical reagent handled with standard laboratory safety practices. It is not intended for in vivo administration. The compound is used in enzyme assays at micromolar concentrations. Appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) should be used when handling the compound.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: 5 mg/mL (14.85 mM) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween-80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one),clear solution; with ultrasonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared,you can add 100 μL of 50.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution and add it to 400 μL PEG300 and mix well. Then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above system and mix well. Then continue to add 450 μL of physiological saline to make up to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O 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.
