Sodium formate
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Sodium formate acts as a key promoter for heterogeneous nucleation of ZIF crystals and thin film synthesis. It is also recognized as a GRAS substance by the FDA, and serves as a cosmetic preservative and food additive. Sodium formate has low acute oral toxicity (acute oral LD50=7410 mg/kg and acute intravenous LD50=807 mg/kg in mice), with no heritable or carcinogenic effects, but exhibits embryonic developmental toxicity and teratogenicity at high concentrations. Sodium formate may cause moderate irritation to rabbit eyes, is relatively safe to the skin, and does not induce tumor formation in rats in vivo. Sodium formate is rapidly absorbed and oxidized to carbon dioxide in vivo, and forms DNA adducts in specific metabolic deficiency models or upon high-dose exposure.

Biological Activity
Sodium formate (5.9-44.1 mM; 24 h) is embryotoxic and dysmorphogenic in a concentration-dependent manner in cultured CD-1 mouse embryos[2].
Sodium formate (1 mM; 6 h) completely attenuates the inhibitory effect of 5 mM MAA on DNA synthesis in CD-1 mouse embryos cultured in serum-free medium, with no independent effect on DNA synthesis[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Line:CD-1 Mouse In Vitro Embryos
-
Concentration:5.9, 11.8, 23.5, 29.4, 44.1 mM
-
Incubation Time:24 h

Result:Exhibited embryotoxic and dysmorphogenic effect in a concentration-dependent manner in cultured CD-1 mouse embryos.
Sodium formate (2,000 mg/kg; applied topically to skin; 24 h) does not cause death, skin reactions or systemic toxicity in Wistar rats, with an acute dermal LD50 greater than 2,000 mg/kg body weight[2].
Sodium formate (2,000 mg/kg; i.p.) induces free radical generation in male Fischer rats, and free radical adducts are detectable in bile and urine[2].
Sodium formate (5-100 mg/kg; i.p.) is rapidly oxidized to CO2 in mice; homozygous NEUT2 mice show reduced oxidative activity only at the low intraperitoneal dose of 5 mg/kg, while at the high intraperitoneal dose of 100 mg/kg, the oxidation rates of normal mice and homozygous NEUT2 mice are identical[2].
Sodium formate (0.1 mL; instilled intraocularly) causes moderate to severe conjunctival irritation and necrosis in New Zealand white rabbits, with all reactions fully resolving by day 17[2].
Topical application of sodium formate (24 h or 14 d) does not cause skin irritation when applied to abraded rabbit skin, nor does it induce local skin irritation or systemic toxicity when applied to the skin of Fischer 344/N rats[2].
Sodium formate (750 mg/kg; p.o.) does not increase the incidence of neural tube defects in fetuses of CD-1 mice at gestational day 8[2].
Sodium formate (59-945 mg/kg/d; daily; p.o.) exerts no maternal toxicity, embryonic toxicity or teratogenic effects in pregnant Wistar rats at gestational days 6-19, with a NOAEL of 945 mg/kg body weight per day[2].
Sodium formate (100-1,000 mg/kg/d; daily; p.o.) causes no maternal or reproductive toxicity in pregnant Himalayan rabbits at gestational days 6-28, with a NOAEL of 1,000 mg/kg/day[2].
[14C] Sodium formate (0.01-100 mg/kg; p.o.) induces dose-dependent formation of DNA and hemoglobin adducts in male Kunming mice. Among these, hepatic DNA adducts reach a peak at 24 h post-administration, while hemoglobin adducts enter a plateau phase between 24 h and 120 h post-administration[2].
Sodium formate (1% in drinking water; 1.5 years) does not induce tumor formation in Wistar rats[2].

-
Animal Model:Kunming mice (male; 8-10 mice per group)[2]
-
Dosage:0.01 mg/kg; 0.1 mg/kg; 1 mg/kg; 10 mg/kg; 100 mg/kg
-
Administration:oral; single dose
-
Result:Observed binding of 14C-formate to DNA and hemoglobin.
Showed both DNA and hemoglobin adduct formation were linearly correlated (r > 0.998) with dose in a log/log plot over the entire dose range.
Found liver DNA adduct formation was slightly higher than kidney DNA adduct formation, and DNA binding was ~100-fold higher than hemoglobin adduct formation.
In time course study, hemoglobin adducts peaked at 2 hours postdosing (~8 adducts/106 amino acid residues), decreased to ~2 adducts/106 amino acid residues by 6 hours, and reached a plateau of ~12 adducts/106 amino acid residues from 24 to 120 hours postdosing.
Found liver DNA adducts increased to ~8 adducts/104 nucleotides at 24 hours postdosing, then decreased to ~3 adducts/104 nucleotides by 72 hours postdosing.
