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.
Please enter the basic information of animal experiments:

The co-solvents required include: DMSO, . All of co-solvents are available by MedChemExpress (MCE). , Tween 80. All of co-solvents are available by MedChemExpress (MCE).
Working solution concentration: 0.22 mg/mL
Method for preparing stock solution: mg drug dissolved in μL DMSO. Stock solution concentration: mg/mL.
1. Take μL DMSO stock solution;
2. Add μL .
μL , mix evenly;
3. Then add μL Tween 80, mix evenly;
4. Then add μL
Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.
Protocol
Rats: The other 5 groups are fed on a 50% galactose diet, and 0.1, 0.25, 0.5 or 1.0% Risarestat ophthalmic solution or its vehicle is instilled in both eyes 4 times a day in each of the 5 treated groups. After 2 weeks, the corneal epithelium is scraped off in all rats and its dulcitol content is determined by gas chromatography[1].
Rabbits: Risarestat is prepared in acetate-buffered saline. 50 μL of 0.5% Risarestat in 7mM acetate-buffered saline (pH 5.2, 290 mOsm) containing 0.15% chlorbutanol as a preservative is instilled to both conjunctival sac of rabbits. This ophthalmic solution is proven to be untoxic to the external eye after 90 days' instillation to the rabbits 9 times a day. The rabbits are then sacrificed at, 15 and 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 24 hours after instillation[2].
