Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Interactions
Repeated subcutaneous injections of 2-octanone alone did not affect the conduction velocity of motor and sensory fibers in the rat tail; however, combined injection of 2-octanone with methyl n-butyl ketone (MnBK) significantly enhanced the neurotoxicity observed with MnBK alone. This study investigated the effects of non-toxic aliphatic ketones on the neurotoxicity of methyl n-butyl ketone. Male Donryu rats were exposed to methyl n-butyl ketone (alone) or methyl n-butyl ketone (in combination with methyl ethyl ketone, methyl n-propyl ketone, methyl n-pentyl ketone, or methyl n-hexyl ketone). Each ketone compound was administered subcutaneously at an equimolar dose (4 mmol/kg) once daily, five days a week, for 20 weeks. Animal weight was measured every two weeks, and neurotoxicity symptoms were observed. Maximum motor fiber conduction velocity and distal latency of the tail nerve were measured every two weeks. All test animals showed a significant decrease in body weight compared to the control group. Animals treated with methyl n-butyl ketone (MnBJ) alone experienced more significant weight loss than those treated with MnBJ, MnBJ, MnBJ, and MnBJ. Hind limb weakness was observed in the test animals. Rats treated with multiple ketone compounds in combination showed more severe hind limb weakness compared to rats treated with MnBJ alone. All ketone compounds enhanced the neurotoxicity of MnBJ, manifested as decreased conduction velocity of tail nerve motor fibers and prolonged distal latency. MnBJ showed the most significant enhancing effect on MnBJ. The authors noted that MnBJ has the longest carbon chain. They suggest that the carbon chain length of aliphatic ketones is directly related to their ability to enhance the neurotoxicity of MnBJ.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
May dissolve in DMSO (in most cases), if not, try other solvents such as H2O, Ethanol, or DMF with a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (19.50 mM) (saturation unknown) 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.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL of PEG300 and mix well; then add 50 μL of Tween-80 and mix well; finally add 450 μL of physiological saline and 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 (19.50 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 DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD saline and mix well.
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.

Solubility in Formulation 3: 2.5 mg/mL (19.50 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), Suspended solution; with ultrasonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL of corn oil and mix well.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

1 mM 7.7997 mL 38.9985 mL 77.9970 mL
5 mM 1.5599 mL 7.7997 mL 15.5994 mL
10 mM 0.7800 mL 3.8999 mL 7.7997 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
