4-Methoxyphenyl isothiocyanate  (Synonyms: 4-Methylphenyl ITC)

Cat. No.: HY-W540232 Purity: 99.59%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

4-Methoxyphenyl isothiocyanate (4-Methylphenyl ITC) is an antioxidant, with a IC50 value of 1.25 mM for scavenging DPPH radicals. ORAC testing indicates its antioxidant capacity as 11.7 mM TE (indicating that the antioxidant efficacy of this compound is equivalent to 11.7 mmol of Trolox (HY-101445, a standard antioxidant) under the same conditions), and it extends the oxidation process by approximately 9180 seconds in the Briggs–Rauscher reaction. Additionally, 4-Methoxyphenyl isothiocyanate exhibits moderate cholinesterase inhibitory activity, with an inhibition rate of 30.4% against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and 17.9% against butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). 4-Methoxyphenyl isothiocyanate holds potential for research in the fields of antioxidation and neurological disorders.

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 5 mg/mL (30.26 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
