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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.83 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.83 mM); Clear solution

Protocol
HaCaT cells (10,000 cells/well) are cultured in 96-well Greiner μCLEAR plates in 100 μL DMEM with HEPES, Glutamax and 10% fetal bovine serum to confluence. Media is replaced with 100 μL media containing 0.2% heat-inactivated, charcoal-stripped fetal bovine serum and incubated overnight. Titrating concentrations of Tapinarof (10-8 μM ,10-6 μM, 10-4 μM, 0.01 μM, and 1 μM) are added for 30 minutes followed by washing and fixing in ice-cold methanol:acetone (50:50). Samples are blocked with 3% BSA for 1 hour, and then washed again in phosphate buffered saline with 0.1% Tween-20. Next, cells are stained with 50 μL of 1:50 dilution anti-AhR antibody in 3% BSA, followed by 50 μL secondary antibody (1:500 dilution chicken anti-rabbit AlexaFluor488 and 1:2,000 dilution Hoechst 33342) in 3% BSA/phosphate buffered saline. Images are acquired on InCell 2000 and/or Opera. Image analysis is performed using InCell Analyzer Workstation and/or Columbus[1].
