Denatonium benzoate
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Denatonium benzoate (THS-839) is known as the most bitter compound and is commonly used as a deterrent (bittering agent) to activate different types of bitter taste receptors (TAS2Rs) with oral activity. Denatonium benzoate can enhance insulin secretion, has anti-inflammatory effects, and promotes allergy susceptibility .

Biological Activity
TAS2Rs
Denatonium benzoate (15 μM, 5 min) reduces the spontaneous contraction activity of rat gastric smooth muscle strips[1].
Denatonium benzoate (10 μM, 24h) increases the release of β-hexosaminidase and the mobilization of Ca2+ in IgE-mediated activated RBL-2H3 and KU812 cells[2].
Denatonium benzoate (10 μM, 30 min) enhances the expression of FcεRIα on the surface of RBL-2H3 and KU812 cells[2].
Denatonium benzoate (0-25 mM, 24 h) inhibits the proliferation of RBL-2H3 and KU812 cells when above 0.1 mM[2].

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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2 mg/mL (4.48 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly:
It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
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.
