Biological Activity
Methenamine hippurate is a urinary antibacterial agent which releases formaldehyde and is excreted in the urine. Methenamine hippurate has a demonstrable activity in vitro at pH 5 to 6 against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Aerobacter aeroaenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Proteus vulgaris, and a wide range of action against Klebsiella pneumoniae, Ps. aeruginosa, E. coli, Staph. aureus and Streptococcus haemolytic at pH of 7.4. This action is more effective than that of Methenamine alone, of Hippuric acid alone or of Sulphadiazine[1].

* In solvent : -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month (sealed storage, away from moisture)
Solvent & Solubility
H2O : 100 mg/mL (313.13 mM; Need ultrasonic)
DMSO : 25 mg/mL (78.28 mM; Need ultrasonic; 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 (sealed storage, away from moisture). 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.
