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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (3.91 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (3.91 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Protocol
Glycosylation ability is assayed with overexpressed BSGT1 enzyme and F1. The reaction mixtures contain 100 μL of 0.5 mM F1 and 100 μL of 2.5 mM UDP-glucose and 800 μL of purified enzyme (final concentration at 0.1 mg/mL) (pH 7.0). The mixtures are incubated at 30°C for 24 h. Moreover, three groups of controls are incubated under the same conditions: (1) control 1 (C1) consists of Ginsenoside F1 with BSGT1; (2) control 2 (C2) consists of BSGT1 with UDP-glucose; and (3) control 3 (C3) consists of Ginsenoside F1 with UDP-glucose[1].

B16BL6 cells are cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagles medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin at 37°C in a humidified 95% air/5% CO2 atmosphere. Cell viability is determined for Ginsenoside F1 and metabolite 1 using MTT conversion to formazan. Cells are seeded at a density of 1×105 cells/well in a 96-well plate, cultured for 24 h, and treated with various concentrations from 1 μM to 200 μM of Ginsenoside F1 and metabolite 1 for 5 d. Finally, 10 μL of MTT (5 mg/mL in PBS) is added to each well. Cells are incubated at 37°C for 3 h, and then DMSO (100 μL) is added to dissolve the formazan crystals. The absorbance is measured at 570 nm with the reference wavelength of 630 nm using an ELISA reader[1].

Mice[2]
Six-week-old (17±1 g) male C57BL/6 mice and ApoE-/- mice with a C57BL/6 background are maintained in a temperature-controlled facility (temperature: 22±1°C; humidity: 60%) with a 14 h light/10 h dark cycle in conventional cages. Forty mice are randomly divided into four experimental groups (n=10/group): (I) C57BL/6 N mice, the control group; (II) ApoE-/- mice group; (III) ApoE-/- mice+ Ginsenoside F1 group; (IV) ApoE-/- mice+Probucol group. All mice are fed with a high fat diet (HFD, 0.3% cholesterol and 20% pork fat) for 8 weeks. Ginsenoside F1 (50 mg/kg/day, i.g.) and Probucol (2 g/kg, i.g.) are dissolved in carboxymethyl cellulose sodium (CMC-Na). Oral administration is given to mice every day for 8 weeks. The control and model groups receive the aseptic 0.5% CMC-Na treatment every day (i.g., 0.1 mL/10g) [2].
