Aristolochic acid B
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Aristolochic acid B (Aristolochic Acid II) is an orally active major component of aristolochic acid (AA). Aristolochic acid B can be isolated from plants of the genus Aristolochica. Aristolochic acid B forms DNA adducts. Aristolochic acid B is mutagenic. Aristolochic acid B exhibits a greater carcinogenic risk in vivo than Aristolochic acid I (HY-N0510).

Biological Activity
Aristolochic acid B (0.4 mM) forms DNA adducts under anaerobic conditions[3].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Aristolochic acid B (10 mg/kg; p.o.; every 3 days; 19 days) causes significant toxicity in female Wistar rats[2].
Aristolochic acid B (0.03 mmol/kg/day; p.o.; 5 days) forms DNA adducts in forestomach, stomach, kidney, bladder, liver, lung, and brain of male Wistar rats[3].

Solvent & Solubility
DMSO : 11.11 mg/mL (35.69 mM; ultrasonic and warming and heat to 60°C; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month (protect from light). When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.

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: ≥ 1.39 mg/mL (4.47 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.39 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (13.9 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.
