Product Description

Quinine is a naturally occuring anti-malaria agent which acts as a potassium channel inhibitor with an IC50 of 169 μM, also has antipyretic (fever-reducing), analgesic (painkilling), anti-inflammatory properties and a bitter taste. It is a stereoisomer of of quinidine which contains an aromatic quinoline and a bicyclic quinuclidine. Quinine prevents formation of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) as well as the subsequent hepatic DNA fragmentation and liver enzyme leakage. Quinine elicits Fos-like immunoreactivity (FLI) concentrated in the medial third of the nucleus.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
In the human liver cancer HepG2 cell line, quinine (150 μM, 30 min) suppresses the growth and cytostatic effects of dengue virus [1]. In the human liver cancer HepG2 cell line, quinine (37.5-150 μM, 24 hours) greatly lowers viral DENV RNA and protein levels in a dose-dependent manner [1].
ln Vivo
Swiss albino mice treated with quinine (gavated, 12 or 15 mg/kg, weekly, 16 weeks) show some inhibitory effects against skin cancer [2]. In the testicular tissue of adult male albino rats, quinine (gavage, 10 mg/kg, daily, 8 weeks) reduces the activity of the antioxidant defense system's SOD, CAT, and GSH enzymes [3].
Cell Assay
Cell Proliferation Assay[1]
Cell Types: Human hepatocarcinoma cell line (HepG2)
Tested Concentrations: 150 μM
Incubation Duration: 30 min
Experimental Results: Inhibited DENV virus replication with 19% yield compared to untreated. decreased DENV-positive cells from 23.28% to 12.05% in a dose-dependent manner.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Swiss albino mice 7-8-weeks (weighing 24 g)[2]
Doses: 12 mg/kg, 15 mg/kg
Route of Administration: po (oral gavage); every week; 16 weeks
Experimental Results: Resulted in a significant reduction in tumor size and weight at 12 mg/kg and little effect at higher dose of 15 mg/kg.

*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

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.
