Tricosanoic acid

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

Tricosanoic acid is an endogenous agonist of long-chain saturated fatty acids and free fatty acid receptor FFAR1, which can activate hair growth. Tricosanoic acid (C23:0) has the activity of improving cognitive function by regulating neuronal membrane fluidity, inhibiting neuroinflammatory response, participating in myelination and neuronal energy metabolism. Tricosanoic acid expression levels are low in the prefrontal cortex of Alzheimer's disease (AD) models; while better cognitive performance corresponds to higher serum concentration levels. Tricosanoic acid can be used as a biomarker for diseases related to cognitive decline.

Stock Solution Working Solution

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% EtOH 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline

Solubility: 0.5 mg/mL (1.41 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

This protocol yields a suspended solution of 0.5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL EtOH stock solution (5.0 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.

Protocol 2

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

Solubility: ≥ 0.5 mg/mL (1.41 mM); Clear solution

This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 0.5 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 EtOH stock solution (5.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
