Solvent & Solubility
H2O : 110 mg/mL (348.85 mM; Need ultrasonic)
H2O : ≥ 50 mg/mL (158.57 mM)
DMSO : 25 mg/mL (79.28 mM; Need ultrasonic; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
* "≥" means soluble, but saturation unknown.
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 (sealed storage, away from moisture and light, under nitrogen). When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.
* Note: If you choose water as the stock solution, please dilute it to the working solution, then filter and sterilize it with a 0.22 μm filter before use.

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.

Protocol
Three groups of eight rats are evaluated: vehicle/sham, vehicle/penetrating ballistic-like brain injury (PBBI), Trofinetide (NNZ-2566)/PBBI. A bolus injection of 10 mg/kg Trofinetide or 1 mL/kg saline (vehicle) is administered intravenously (IV) to each animal at 30 minutes post-PBBI surgery, immediately followed by a continuous IV infusion of Trofinetide at a rate of 3 mg/kg/h or an equal volume of vehicle for various durations (1 h, 4 h, or 12 h). Rats are subsequently euthanized and brain tissues are collected for processing at 1 h, 4 h, 12 h, 24 h, 3, and 7 days following the initiation of treatment[1].
