Sodium octadecyl sulfate
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Sodium octadecyl sulfate (Sodium stearyl sulfate) is a long-chain alkyl sodium sulfate that functions as an emulsifier, crosslinking agent, and regulator. Sodium octadecyl sulfate has high safety, with a LD50 greater than 3.00 Gm./Kg for both intraperitoneal injection in mice and oral administration in rats. Sodium octadecyl sulfate enhances continuous contraction of the gastrocnemius muscle in frogs and boosts intestinal smooth muscle activity in albino rats. However, Sodium octadecyl sulfate exerts no significant effect on isolated tortoise myocardium and does not alter the conduction function of frog sciatic nerves. Sodium octadecyl sulfate can also be used to coat the surface of starch aggregates, promote crosslinking and increase aggregate size through hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions, and further form a coexistent B-V type crystalline structure with acid-hydrolyzed gelatinized starch, thereby effectively modifying the structure and surface properties of high-starch systems.

Sodium octadecyl sulfate (1:100,000-1:100; until muscle fatigue) does not alter the nerve conduction of isolated frog sciatic nerves[1].
Sodium octadecyl sulfate (1:100) irreversibly elevates the contraction baseline of isolated frog gastrocnemius muscles without reducing the response threshold[1].
Sodium octadecyl sulfate (1:100; 5 min) enhances the activity of isolated rat intestinal smooth muscle[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.
