Product Description

Description: Rivastigmine, also known as ENA-713 and SDZ-ENA 713, is a reversible cholinesterase inhibitor with IC50 of 5.5 μM, it is used as a parasympathomimetic or cholinergic agent for the management of mild to moderate Alzheimer disease, Dementia, and Parkinson's Disease. Rivastigmine is a carbamate-derived reversible cholinesterase inhibitor that is selective for the central nervous system . It acts by covalently modifying a serine residue in the active site by carbamoylation, as it stabilizes or reduces the rate of decline in certain cognitive functions.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Rivastigmine (S-rivastigmine; 1 µM; 24 hours) coupled with carbachol (10 µM) reduced LPS (2.5 µg/ml)-induced TNF-α and IL-6 by 50% and 46%, respectively. % without making any substantial impact. Pro-inflammatory cytokines are lowered [3]. Rivastigmine (1 µM), carbachol (10 µM), or a combination of both medications show no cytotoxic effects on activated cells [3].
ln Vivo
An intraperitoneal injection of rivastigmine (S-rivastigmine; 0.5-2.5 mg/kg; administered 60 minutes prior to testing) markedly and dose-dependently alleviated behavioral abnormalities caused by aluminum [4]. In BALB/c OlaHsd male 8–9 week old mice weighing 200–250 grams with acute colitis, rivastigmine (0.5, 1 mg/kg/day; SC; for 8 days) decreases IL-6 concentrations by roughly 50% and 60%, respectively, but not TNF-α and IL-1β concentrations [3]. At 1 mg/kg, rivastigmine totally stopped bleeding and inhibited colonic contractions, but not at 0.5 mg/kg. While rivastigmine (1 mg/kg) reduced submucosal edema and cellular infiltration, treatment with rivastigmine (0.5 mg/kg) showed minimal change in these pathological findings. Additionally, partial recovery of the crypt architecture was observed. At the conclusion of the trial, a 4.7% weight reduction was achieved with rivastigmine (1 mg/kg) [3].
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Male Wistar albino rat, body weight 190–240 g (90 days old) [4]
Doses: 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2.5 mg/kg
Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip) injection; single dose
Experimental Results: significant and dose Dependently improves aluminum-induced behavioral disturbances (100 mg/kg/day; i.p.; for 60 days)

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ≥ 50 mg/mL (~199.73 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.99 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 (9.99 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.

  • 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
