Icafolin-methyl
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Icafolin-methyl is a herbicide and plant β-tubulin (Microtubule/Tubulin) inhibitor. Icafolin-methyl binds to the β-tubulin region of the Colchicine (HY-16569) binding site, thereby blocking the polymerization of plant tubulin. As a non-selective herbicide, Icafolin-methyl exhibits post-emergence activity against weeds in both cool-season and warm-season cropping systems, including resistant ryegrass and darnel biotypes. Icafolin-methyl can be used for herbicide research.

Biological Activity
Icafolin-methyl (10 nM; 2 weeks) strongly inhibits Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 seedling growth, inducing morphological abnormalities consistent with mitotic disruption[1].
Icafolin-methyl (100 nM; 3 days) inhibits tobacco BY-2 cell replication, induces isodiametric cell swelling, and disrupts chromatin structure, indicating mitotic disruption via tubulin polymerization inhibition[1].
Icafolin-methyl (1.6 μM; 3 days) inhibits Chlamydomonas reinhardtii CC1690 mt+ cell growth with an EC50 of 1.3 ± 0.1 μM, preventing cell division and inducing massive cell swelling consistent with tubulin polymerization inhibition[1].
Icafolin-methyl (10 μM; throughout tubulin polymerization reaction) potently inhibits the in vitro polymerization of purified tobacco BY-2 tubulin, confirming its mode of action as a tubulin polymerization inhibitor[1].

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 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 5 mg/mL (13.15 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 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.
