Tecovirimat monohydrate  (Synonyms: ST-246 monohydrate)

Cat. No.: HY-14805A Purity: 97.35%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

Tecovirimat (ST-246) monohydrate is the monohydrate form of Tecovirimat (HY-14805). Tecovirimat monohydrate is an orally bioavailable and selective compound against orthopoxviruses [including vaccinia, monkeypox, camelpox, cowpox, ectromelia (mousepox), smallpox and variola viruses]. Tecovirimat monohydrate is evaluated against vaccinia, cowpox virus, ectromelia virus with EC50 values of 0.01 μM, 0.48 μM and 0.05 μM, respectively. Tecovirimat monohydrate targets the orthopoxvirus protein VP37 which is necessary for membrane envelopment of intracellular mature virus particles to form enveloped virus. Tecovirimat monohydrate exerts antiviral activity on the target of the cowpox virus V061 gene, which is homologous to vaccinia virus F13L, encoding a major envelope protein (p37) required for production of extracellular virus. Tecovirimat monohydrate could be used in the study for orthopoxvirus-induced diseases.

    In Vivo:

    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.

    • Protocol 1

      Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
